SPARTANBURG, S.C. -- His own mother told him not to run, and on Saturday, Jeb Bush finally caved to her political wisdom, suspending his presidential campaign after another disappointing showing in South Carolina's primary.

"The people of Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina have spoken and I really respect their decision. So tonight I am suspending my campaign," he said at a post-election party in Columbia.

Didn’t this Bushite have a girl problem years back?

I’d rather Sanders than another Bush.

Indeed he does. Had/has a stalker issue back in his youth which is not that far back.

And we were having so much fun mocking him.

Not me. I'm glad I won't have to choose between him and the Dems in November, but I'm moving on.

>> George Pee needs to be primaried in 2018. A Republican with the slogan of "I'll show up to work", should defeat him handily.

Agreed, that should be an effective campaign strategy. A campaign ad showing daddy Jeb whining about Rubio not showing up for work with a side by side video of his son going across the country to campaign for daddy INSTEAD of working for the people of Texas would be devasting.

George Pee needs to be taken out out now, before he can become a contender for a major office like U.S. Senator or Governor.

“Once stalked a college girlfriend” according to some lib blog. Eh.

I did not know this but Jeb’s wife apparently has terrible English.

Supposedly, it’s practically nil.

English is a hard language to learn. I understand that, but WTF? You’re in >>any<< country for decades and don’t pick up >>anything<<? That’s a lack of intelligence, arrogance and intellectual sloth right there.

Just another reason why ¡Yeb! has no business getting a sniff of the presidency.

Here she is on C-Span

I have to assume she and Jeb speak Spanish at home.

And yes, he’s a purported stalker.

The Bushes & the Clintons need to disappear from the political stage forever.

Thank you for your military service in WW2, GHWB. That’s all the praise I’ll give the whole family. Ok, Lauren Bush is gorgeous. Now that’s it.

The Clintons? Where to begin? Just go away. Take your grifted million$ and disappear.

Bien.

I’m not Tom Cruise or Paul Newman...but damn...I’ve never come close to having a dog like that. With all that family money, he couldn’t land a human looking wife?

Again, it proves ¡Yeb! is/was completely unqualified to be POTUS. His family is a complete disaster.

Yeah, I’d rather not know the details but clearly she must love him long time or something.

She’s not attractive, looks like the daughter.

I forgot all about Lauren Bush, she resembles Keri Russell.

Jeb always appeared completely overwhelmed.
Shouldn’t have been in this race at all.
