Jeb Bush lays out plans for 60 fundraisers for 2016 bid

Washington Times ^ | 1/20/15 | David M Drucker

[SoFloFreeper]

....Bush operatives who joined the former Florida governor at the afternoon event announced that 60 events in cities across the country have been scheduled to raise money for his federal leadership political action committee, which can accept money only in limited amounts, and his super PAC, which can accept checks in unlimited amounts.

[SoFloFreeper]

Let's hope he gets less than he expects and gives up.

I am not sending him any money. He obviously doesn't want any money from the filthy base of the party.

[HomerBohn]

Send the money to Scott Walker.

[Diogenesis]

Is Terry Schiavo coming to support His Majesty?

[dforest]

I wonder who he thinks is going to vote for him?

I am not. I can also name many others right in my circle.

[wolfman23601]

He’ll get his big money from Wall Street and K Street and he’ll get plenty of it. He doesn’t care if we give him money.

[BikerJoe]

I wonder who he thinks is going to vote for him?
I am not. I can also name many others right in my circle.
I'm still registered R, in fact I'm a committee chairman. I'll quit the party if he gets the nomination.

[jsanders2001]

And the Dems plans to win 2016 begins by whispering “you need to run” in the ears of as many Repubs as the they can to spread the votes so they can assure victory for their own.

Ya know after awhile we can’t feign ignorance to the methods of deception used by the left and keep on doing the same thing to win. We’re going to have to change our own m.o. and out maneuver them or set traps to catch them engaging in illegal voting and call them out on it by using truth. We all suspect the electronic voting system is rigged. We just have to prove it by find manipulated machines, recording the evidence on video and marching into the offices of the manufacturers and interviewing them on camera. Somewhere from point a to point b they are being tampered with. We’ve already seen many instances of it already. Instead of posting about it here. the proof needs to be aired on national networks for ALL to see, including the nitwits...

>>Send the money to Scott Walker.<<

????huh???? Scott Walker? Good grief.

How bout TED CRUZ 2016

[Wyrd bið ful aræd]

This is a nightmare scenario. He won't get much grassroots money, and he doesn't need to -- the millionaire elites in the party will provide him with more than we ever could anyway. In the primaries dems with crossover and put him over the top, and he'll be nominated. And then he'll get absolutely trounced in the general election, ala McCain, but worse. I cannot believe that this guy thinks he has a prayer...The arrogance is stunning.

The only way we can stop this narrative from playing out to it's inevitable conclusion is by getting behind Cruz, now. Walker is alright I suppose, but why settle for second-best when Cruz is available?

If we elect a real conservative, finally, we need to put an end to big government - drive a stake through its hear:

We need to kill Obamacare, no matter how much the parasitic class may whine.

We need to seal the borders and deport all illegals, even those who can present themselves as sympathetic victims.

We need to disassemble the bureaucracy, slash spending, and destroy excess revenue capabilities. If we keep the income tax at all, we need to remove all social engineering from the tax code - taxes should only serve the purpose of collecting revenue to fund the government's enumerated powers.

We need to repeal all bad laws, including but not limited to all federal gun laws. We need to repeal all laws that infringe on free speech and on freedom of religion, including "hate speech" and diversity laws.

2016 is our country's last chance, if it's not already too late.

[MarkRegal05]

Walker might have a nominal lead at the moment, but Jeb is probably hoping that people will see his first-quarter fundraising numbers and be impressed. Financial shock and awe.

We get to see someone attempt to buy the nomination, essentially.

[HomerBohn]

America needs a governor, at this juncture, with a record of staring down unions, Democrats and RINOs.

[servantboy777]

Well get on with your bad seff. Too liberal for me.

[magna carta]

Scott Walker is overrated. He will not deport. At this point in our history if someone is too timid to crack the whip on law and order how will he handle Islamic Caliphate?

[rktman]

Sadly, there are probably jeb psychos that will support him much like the other IPOS that back the lyin’ king no matter what he says or does. Or doesn’t do. I concur with your hoping he finds his support is NOT what he imagines it is.

[servantboy777]

>>2016 is our country’s last chance, if it’s not already too late.<<

I agree 1000%. We need a staunch conservative to turn back decades of liberalism/RHIO-ism.

Scott Walker, Jeb Bush, Chris Christie, Lindsey Graham are NOT conservatives. Geezzz

[Rum Tum Tugger]

I watched part of his Detroit speech this week.

The Phillips academy, pot-smoking, dim-witted, bully Jeb Bush can barely read a speech that someone else wrote. He is a pathetic speaker.

It should be fun watching the dim-witted Jeb in the debates. I’m betting he’ll be as bad as Rick Perry.

I will not vote for anyone who supports Obamacare; Amnesty; gun “control” other than proper site picture, breath control, and trigger control; bigger government; or even maintaining the same size government we have today. It’s time to put an end to mission creep in Fedgov and roll back the damage from the past six years and then from the past six decades.

[Zathras]

I don’t think he realizes that left wing donors are all he is going to get.
The left figures it is cheaper to send 10k to Jeb than having to send 10M to fight a Cruz/Walker team.

The Left knows they can beat Jeb and beat him badly for very little money.
They just need to show video of him talking.
