Jeb Bush: 'I hated' being front-runner, 'I feel much better' in back of pack
Washington Examiner ^ | 12/20/15 | Al Weaver

Posted on 12/20/2015 2:21:15 PM PST by jimbo123

Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush claimed Sunday that he hated being the GOP front-runner during the beginning of the primary process, and prefers trailing the current front-runners.

Bush told "Face The Nation" host John Dickerson that he always thought there would be a "high expectation" for him to do well because of his family history. He said that he feels good about where the campaign is situated right now.

I said nothing about a silver spoon.

Another Freeper posted that to me.

Trump was given an opportunity by his successful father.

And Trump built on the foundation he was given.
Trump is a very smart and hard worker.

The photo that has thrilled Republican primary voters, but will it work again? It might, considering how informed so many are.

Yeah I can see you get it. But there are still people out there that think Donald never had to struggle and they could not be further from the truth.

He took what his father gave him, built on it and then lost it all. Then he made an incredible comeback. That comeback is all credited to Donald Trump and no one else, except perhaps for the power of positive thinking that was preached to him by his pastor Norman Vincent Peale. Donald with his discipline and work ethic, and the sermons of his pastor built everything he has today.

People should know the above. I didn’t know it when I set out to prove Donald Trump was a liar and a fraud. Talk about being fooled by the media, they put a caricature of him over on me big-time but now I am the wiser. I’ve grown since to greatly admire Donald’s honesty and to thoroughly despise the dishonesty of the media.

“He said that he feels good about where the campaign is situated right now.”

Finally I can agree with this twit. The closer he gets to gone, the better I feel too.

Something is wrong with Bush.
He has lost his mind.


Yeb!’s problem is that the world is finally finding out that his brother is the “smart” one. And it’s killing him.

.@JebBush was terrible on Face The Nation today. Being at 2% and falling seems to have totally affected his confidence. A basket case!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 20, 2015

Likely all the supporters of the candidates below Bush will ultimately support Bush...That could be a significant number...Could be a number of Carson’s supporters go that way as well...

I can’t decide if this is evidence of denial or if he is simply lying.
