Well, try to think and understand what I am telling you - if you are capable.
I'm not the only one expressing this opinion about Jeb's "problem" with the conservative base in Florida. I've heard this exact same sentiment from other conservative activists down here in Palm Beach County.
I may be one of the very few that have no qualms saying it on FR. I can endure the slings & arrows. I'm merely trying to give you folks from outside Florida some reasons why the polls are so damn close!
Can't you get it your thick skull that he should be running away with this thing against an idiot, political unknown?
The fact is that isn't is indicative of some underlying problem(s). My theories may be wrong or right. I don't know but I do know spending a ton of campaign money on TV ads during the Democrat Primary to boost a trailing, political novice unknown against Janet Reno, thereby raising his name recognition and profile, was one of the more stupid things he has done.
Where was he during the Elian fiasco? Do you think he gave any Cuban American a reason to vote for him for his lack of leadership or support during the Elian fiasco?
For those conservatives who think Ward Connerly is a great man and the leader in getting rid of Affirmative Action, do you think Jeb telling Connerly to get the hell out of Florida endeared him to his conservative base?
Do you think guaranteeing the top 20% of HS graduates automatic admission into Florida's University is a great leap forward?
Do you think not allowing any offshore drilling in Florida is a great leadership step as our oil supply is threatened yet again?
I drove through 5 counties the other day. Saw lots of McBride signs - hardly any Jeb signs.
Even in Martin County - Pubbie stronghold!
