Jeb Bush called Donald Trump's a "loser" on Wednesday for his second-place finish in the Iowa caucuses, while praising Ted Cruz's work ethic.
"[Cruz] outworked everybody, and he won. It doesn't necessarily translate beyond that, but to his credit, he won," Bush said during an interview on Hugh Hewitt's radio show. "And the other interesting thing is Donald Trump lost. He's a loser."
-snip-
The attack is an interesting gambit for Bush, who finished sixth in the caucuses with 2.8 percent of the vote compared to Trump's second place finish with 24.3 percent of the vote. Bush also trailed Rand Paul, who withdrew from the race today after his fifth-place showing.

Donald Trump is a sore loser. But Jeb really shouldn’t be talking, he should be asking people to clap for him.

He’s like Barack Obama, shouting insults from the porch and running behind mom’s skirts when challenged.
Enjoy your sampling-error poll numbers, Jebbie.

Bush is becoming very bitter. He should quietly withdraw and go silent.

Jeb, in New Hampshire, is wondering why his passable command of Spanish isn’t going over with gangbuster gusto!

I KEEP SAYING IT !!! I am not convinced, with Cruz's connections with the Bush Dynasty, that Cruz is all that opposed to Jeb and Kasich. He NEVER directs his venom at them. And now Jeb praises Cruz??
WAKE UP !!! Jeb and Kasich have got to go.

Jeb is the stopped clock who is right by accident twice a day. This is one of those times.

Jeb made his statement after group testing it in 13 sample demographics.
If polling date shows that using the word “loser” on Donald Trump had a positive impact swing of >5%, he may consider using it again in March.
