All that’s needed now is for someone to flush the handle.”
Hopefully Momma Babs will say enuf already! If she does wonder if George P will come back to work in Texas and do the job he was elected to do. Although he has been AWOL for so long looks like one of the offices Gov Abbott could eliminate if he had the guts to do so.
Bush has a real shot at either the Democratic nomination or for the presidency of Mexico!
Rubio.
Yeb just doesn’t look like he’s got it in him. He is without passion, almost as if he was talked into running, but really didn’t want to. Maybe that’s what the whole “low energy” thing is about.
Jeb was going to go against the interests of primary voters and still get their votes because all the other candidates were merely going to be minor variations of him. Trump put a stop to that plan by not blending in with establishment planks. The money men can put their money behind Hillary. The problem, as Jeb is about to find out, is that money can’t buy you votes if your plan is to stick it to the people you’re hoping will vote for you.
IMO, I think jebbush might be out because he doesn’t want to expose his family to any more scrutiny over 9/11.
I’m glad Jeb is flailing but that statement makes no sense.
The Bushes knew that before he entered, if it’s an issue for them. If it was an issue it would be all over the place whether Jeb runs or not, given the media’s Bush hatred.
I agree. Huck and Santorum have nothing better to do. Paul will drop out and run for reelection, and try again (and again and again) just like his dad. Rubio is committed, he’s not running for reelection, and at least his numbers are going up. He will be the last dog to die of the GOPe pack.
Or maybe they will recruit Mittens to run again. I notice that lately, he’s been all over the place being held out as some sort of an expert on the election.
It was over for Jeb before it even started.
There was never a ground swell of grass roots support for his candidacy. There's never even been a whimper of support, which is why he can't draw more than a couple dozen bored-looking people to his campaign appearances
What's truly disgusting, is that the Bush family believes so strongly in their pseudo royalty, that they thought they could push Jeb through to the nomination anyway. Perhaps Jeb's train wreck of a campaign has finally woken them up. One can only hope.
Actually, the dems only have 3 left! Yep could easily adjust a few “values” here and there and he’d be a solid rival for Hitlery.
You’ve heard of Deathrace 2000...
...and now, the sequel:
DEATHWATCH 2015!
You know, I still cannot believe we nominated McCain.
I was watching the movie Boyhood and the kid and his dad are putting up Obama/Biden signs and they spot a McCain sign and snatch it up and throw it in their pickup. Typical lib move, right?
But what I felt was shock and awe. A McCain sign! What were we thinking back then.
Can’t El Chappo kick in a few million pesos?
After all, he stands to gain from a Bush presidency.
I'm pretty sure Reince and his GOP-e plotters have already hopped off the Bush train, and have boarded the Rubio Express in hopes that it will get them to the station.
Jebito and his clan know this, which is why the big meeting this weekend. It's over.
Mitt Romney, please pick up the white courtesy phone...
His older brother didn't help him a bit. Dubya should've been out there, defending his own record. Instead, he let Jeb waste all that time and energy defending him, when Jeb should have been talking about what HE would do as President.
No, I think it’s Rubio next, and he’s been moving up in the polls a bit. Also been touted lately as a great communicator.
Like Obama was, he’s meant for the next cycle, but events often intervene, as we have seen lately.
On the other side, with Hillary moving back onto the coronation throne, the era of Hope and Change is officially over. The 90’s called and said we can keep its politics.
The Rube is next in line.
