Exactly my thoughts. And you have to wonder why these “big money bundlers” couldn’t get it through their heads instantly — and certainly before dispensing the cash — that a third Bush was ridiculous.

The only thing I can think of is they were counting on “name recognition” by the REALLY low-information voter.

Yes, and his Mom even said it over a year ago. However, the elites, RINO party,uniparty, whatever we want to call these powerbrokers, must have been very confident they could do this. THis tells us how far down they think this land has fallen. What is most astonishing is that this is common sense to know you could not be elected after your father and brother were. So, another strike against Jeb, lack of common sense. What lacks common sense even more is shoving the illegal immigration debate and ‘acts of love’ in the voters’ faces. That is like a ‘let em eat cake’ moment.

What’s the point? At this point in time, people have made up their minds.

Jeb doesn’t really need to put himself through further humiliation.

Now they will waste another $100 Million on Rubio. Same result.

It will probably take him that long to get his zipper all the way up...

In the words of Yeb, “Blah, blah, blah”. Time for him to take a long bed rest.

Wonder what Mommy and Daddy and big brother told Jeb to do?

That’s it: name ID, and I will never discount that. So many pat themselves on the back when they see a celebrity that they can recognize.

This never made practical sense. Whether or not his father and brother are popular or unpopular are irrelevant - people just get leery of, or even just bored with, having this many candidates from the same immediate family so soon.

Very well said Republican Wildcat. Jeb should have listened to his mother. When she said "No more Bushes" she was being practical as well as political. Another Bush at this time was a no brainer. Barbara Bush is probably the most astute politician in the family.

Didn’t we just see where Rubio quit going to work because he was bored? Is that their next great hope?

Next thing we'll hear is the entire GOP has decided to just go home.

They really wanted Jeb in the race to elect Hillary.

Now they’ll work on stopping Trump to elect Hillary.

That was their plan all along.

I think we know what Barbara said. You probably know what she said, when she did not want him to run. She must have put the word curse jinx on his whole campaign, actually.

She said, “Jeb will inherit all of our enemies, and only half of our friends.”. That is true. At that level of society, you can’t even know who your friends really are.

You mean we only have to wait one more month before Jeb fails his masters on the dark side? Only one more month of listening to him spout Jebberish?

HooRah!!
