That get out the vote machine of the Bush’s must be why the Jeb! events in NH are so well attended, right?

You know the old saying it applies here.

“its not what you know but who you know.” Jeb knows John Sununu, gets him votes, he is NH Haley Barbour a Boss Hogg character with an Arab Checkbook.

Doesn’t make sense I agree since Jeb has no crowds.
Jeb had to ask for Applause. But look at the Drudge report now Jeb they say is Second. I don’t know I think he has a tight race with Kasich who is very good with people one on one.

I predict a record turnout, weather permitting.

Trump has made this an exciting race, whether you like him or not.

Basically agree but Bush only has to mostly consolidate the GOPe vote and with Trump and Cruz splitting the non-establishment votes Bush wins the press headlines.

Cruz, Carson Trump are the anti establishment and over 50 percent of the vote. In a place like NH with crossover voters, it makes the winner hard to figure out, don’t you think.

When I was in Texas me and the wife listened to Rush crossed over hoping to prolong Hillary versus Obama so they could “claw eachothers eyes out”. Rush was right that would have been great and we both enjoyed doing mischief to the Dems as they have often done to the GOP.

Since we don’t know who all is voting for whom, I can’t bank on who gets what vote.

That is why I only think its Trump plus 12 lead. But no matter a Double Digit Trump win with so many well known and well funded campaigns would be BIG MO for Trump going into SC. Anyone who tells you a double digit win ain’t big is lying. Now if Bernie doesn’t win by 20% in his next door state with only 2 candidates that isn’t such a big win for Bernie.

Why? Cruz most likely will be fourth.

Cruz has almost no organization in NH.

That's not what I understand. Are you on the ground there, or are you just repeating rumors?

Indeed he is. I haven’t been able to listen to him since the day he declared Rubio a ‘true’ conservative. SPIT

Shocking is an understatement - Rush had me fooled, I admit it.

The whole damn shell game needs to be blown apart, for good!

That's to create the "I was robbed" meme when the voters refuse to hold their nose to vote for the steaming pile candidate.
