Jeb Bush's supporters have spent $15 million on slickly produced ads to win over Iowa voters. Barely registering in the polls and increasingly desperate in the shadow of the Iowa caucuses, he's now trying a cost-free, personal tactic: hugs. [...]
Bush, once considered the Republican presidential front-runner, is doing whatever it takes to stay relevant in the 2016 contest.
And whether it's a friendly squeeze or a scathing attacks ad from his allies, he's showing no signs of going quietly.

That’s ironic.
Well,it’s not working.

Actually, in the case of the Booshes, one was too many. GHWB was a GOPe plant in the Reagan Administration. He and his mini-me “W” have worked like beavers to undo everything that RR did.

Besides The Cheap Labor Express
They thought they could buy the nomination for Yeb! to be The Designated Loser
Their goal is simply to prevent us from electing anyone who would stop them
It’s all that sun.
Jeb needs to move on. The honorable thing to do is get out and endorse somebody else. Which would seem to be Rubio. He is the only guy the GOPe will find palatable with an outside chance to win. Christie as well.
To “stay” relevant? We’re a bit past that stage, aren’t we?
BTW, I love Jeb Bush threads. They are almost 100% abuse of Bush. I enter these threads with the same joyful exhuberance as when--as a boy--i ran towards a johnny pile, ready to throw myself on top.
He’d be a lock for President of Mexico.
