"In the 2016 presidential race, a new poll shows New Jersey Republicans prefer a governor who isn’t theirs.

Their choice would be Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker. According to a Monmouth University poll released today, in a matchup between Walker and Gov.

State by state, I just don’t see primary results getting any better than 2nd place in any state. For Bush, the donor list will get fairly small after five or six 2nd-place winnings.

I live in NJ and although I would rather have Christie as my governor than any of the infinitely horrible dem alternatives, I absolutely do not want Christie to run for president. Absolutely not.

Bush, Christie, Huckabee (pronounced with a leading F) should all pack up and go home.

Jeb and the Bush Machine are holding out for the “winner take all” delegate grab in Florida.

They expect the rest of the field to split the “proportional” delegates in the 2 weeks now allowed for early primaries (had been a month).

Then the Bushes plan to take control with their money and GOP-e push.

Maybe the one good thing Rubio can do for us is win in Florida.

It will be interesting to see if Bush gets in, and if he doesn’t, who he throws his weight ($$$) behind.

Bush might win the primary by tricks, cons, crimes and the help of dems, but he won’t win the election.

No way the American people elect another Bush.

They would soon elect Putin.

Bush is a dismal reminder of his brothers utter and complete failure to champion and defend conservative American values while under attack from the left. When bush is humiliated out of the race, he will have his brother and Karl rove to thank.

Yes, bush had his moments, but his “turn the other cheek” and submit rather than fight under leftist assault lead to the pathetic DHS and other idiocies under his administration.

Jeb and the Bush Machine are holding out for the “winner take all” delegate grab in Florida.

Ask President Gilualini how that worked out for him.
