Jeb is probably a good-hearted guy. But, what the big donors do not want is someone who will stick to principles - no matter what. They certainly don't want another Ronald Reagan. He was the kind of guy that when they thought he should not treat the commies the way he did, he did it anyways. They don't like that kind of action. They would prefer someone at Reykjavík giving in to Gorbachev just cuz.

In these days, we need someone who will not wince at the hard decisions. And, we certainly don't need someone more beholden to a lot of big-monied people. Because he is then their president and not ours.

Yes. It may very well boil right down to that. And what looks to us like a huge investment in his candidacy may just be chump change to these supersized donors , anyway.

Ps: so maybe the big do it’s don’t actually have or need a specific agenda they want from Jeb. Just that they think he will listen to whatever they may want later.
