The latest Pew poll shows that Jeb Bush has fallen to 4 percent in the Republican field. Donald Trump leads the field with 25 percent; Ben Carson is at 16 percent.
Carly Fiorina and Marco Rubio are tied for third at 8 percent of the Republican field
"At this stage of the 2016 presidential campaign, key issues divide both Republican and Democratic voters, and early candidate preferences reflect some of these cleavages," writes Pew.
"When Republican and Republican-leaning voters are asked in an open-ended format (no names provided) for their first choice for the nomination, none of the 15 GOP candidates are named by more than 25% of those who may vote in the primary: 25% name Donald Trump, 16% name Ben Carson, both Marco Rubio and Carly Fiorina are named by 8%, 6% name Ted Cruz and 4% choose Jeb Bush. Other candidates are named by 2% or fewer. A quarter (25%) of potential Republican primary voters do not mention a first choice today, four months before the first caucuses and primaries."
I sat on my couch and laughed. These people talk to one another; but, obviously never bothered to ask people who were actually going to be voting in the primaries. I knew Jeb! was not that popular among actual conservative voters, and that his nomination was far from sure. And, here we are with the MSM totally befuddled about why he is at 4%. Clueless, clueless.
Hasta la vista pendejo!
Yeah Jeb! is in the driver’s seat of that train wreck.
“Did jeb really do that? Tippy toes?”
Absolutely. At the Reagan Library debate. Pathetic. Desperate.
Got to get Jeb under 3% so he sits at the kiddie table.
I didn’t think I could dislike him anymore.....yet I do. Real badly now. Pathetic extremely pathetic and a bit disturbing. Childish.
“Who knew that the monocle and top hat crowd added up to 4%?”
It’s that big because many country club republicans have modernized and ditched the monocle an top hat look.
Jeb Bush will have to campaign for Texas Land commissioner next as he will soon not be invited to any debates.
Oh wait someone else already has that job. Never there mind you but he has that job. Some guy named George P. Bush.
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
It also shows that 35% of Trump’s voters are happy to see the wealthy gauged with higher taxes. Chumps all.
Stuff happens...
Should be Barbara Bush ‘’et vir’’
Well, I’ll still won’t be able to relax until Barbara Pierce Bush calls him home, for there are many, many liberal Republicans out there.
In early 1973, people thought that 1976 would be Agnew v. EMK. Never happened
