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.

At least he’s comfortable with his place, in the back of the pack. Reminiscent of leading from behind. A waste of over $100 million in good money, some of which could have gone to other candidates. Now it only goes to Jeb approved candidates, if to anyone.

I think Jeb will be Hillary’s VP pick.

He has no business running for President.

He and his wife can run a taco stand for all I care.

Many years ago there was a jealous small boy, whose little sister was quite talented and a good performer. Finally, when several guests came over to watch the girl perform, the little boy couldn’t stand it anymore and yelled a string of expletives, followed by “[cursing] YOU, CUT IT OUT!!!”

Then, red faced, crying and bawling, he dove under a table, and was so agitated that he pooped himself.

If he is still alive, he would be in his 70’s or 80’s, but people *still* remember his behavior that day.

Jeb Bush reminds me of this former child.

I also feel much better with Jeb in back of the pack. Can hardly wait for him to catch down and tie Lindsay.

Looks like Jeb bought them a few rounds at local Applebees.

Wow! If Yeb is happy at 3%, he’s gonna be positively, deliriously ecstatic at 1%!

“Jeb! is definitely a beta male”

Beta is way to close to the head of the pack for Yeb; Yeb is more a phi, chi, psi, or omega male.

He’s got that Shleprock thing going. Everything he touches turns to crap.
