Jeb Bush is choice of conservatives

LOL

So, is that the new narrative the GOP Elites are going to try to push -- that conservatives want Jeb?

If so, the conservatives are in worse condition that we realize. Maybe Jeb could claim to be another 'compassionate conservative'. That fooled many in 2000 and 2004.

Jeb came out of the gate last week swinging AT conservatives, basically saying he didn't need them to win the nomination.

Isn’t Zogby the most left-leaning of our pollsters?

Hmmmm.....?

Is Zogby fishing for a polling “contract”?

That’s the silliest Headline Ever. Ted Cruz must do whatever it takes to win the nomination and if that means publicly shaming them in debates, so be it. I don’t care how many RINO’s or RINO Light’s run, it’s already goodbye to Jeb Bush, Mitt Romney and certainly a “ Physically Lighter” Christie, no way, they’re not going to WIN and would simply keep up the status quo.

cater to K-Street

It will even be worse now that McConnell slipped a massive expansion of campaign donation limits into the budget bill.

Pols will need 'the little people' less and less for donations now. Somewhere, behind the scenes they are working on plans and schemes to try to find a way to eliminate or cut down on those messy elections -- where 'the little people' vote. If they could just limit voting to the big donors, their utopia would be almost complete.

I told her about this and she said well this goes on all the time and it’s probably kids having a laugh.

Next year at this time the wife and kids and myself will go to the mountains in TN and rent a log cabin, LOL

It would be easier than her telling me her so called facts from Good morning America, today show and the likes of Channel 4,5,7 and NECN.

Also, are these numbers statistically significant. If Romney’s up two points over Bush it may be w/in the margin of error.

Part of being a good man & husband is making peace with your Mother in Law....lol, even one from Massachusetts:) She’s never going to change. I have liberal family members. I have learned to just smile. Otherwise I would have an ulcer.

Our economy is on the verge of complete melt-down, and I doubt that it will hold up until 2016.

I expected it to crash before now, but TPTB have managed to lie, cheat, and print to hide the extent of our bankruptcy.

If our economy tanks before 2016, what then? I would think that would be good for a true conservative, like Cruz. But he has no executive experience, and I have no idea how much he knows about economics.

If our economy struggles along without collapse until the election in 2016, I think we should worry about a conservative being elected, for he/she would be blamed by all for the collapse.

I am interested in what everyone else thinks, so please post your thoughts/opinions.

This culture has become so absurd that I’m more bemused than angry these days....I think it’s all going to end incredibly bad & I need to keep my sanity at this point more than I need to be worrying about if this mess can ever be fixed.
