Attendees apparently haven’t been following Rand very much. He has come down on several sides of several issues. He seems to put out feelers to see what he stands for — at the time.

Thanks! Headline should be “Bush: single digit candidate!!”

With bussed in Bush supporters voting, I’m not giving too much sway to the results of the poll.

Jeb is a pudgy little wuss who lacks the decency to spare this country the daunting prospect of having a royal-like dynasty. If he were a real man he would step aside for better men and women, or he would run as a Democrat.

Bush took a page out of the George Soros / Liberal Elite playbook.

That page called, " How to Play Everyday Liberals, Blacks and the Press for fools"... won't work on conservatives.

The problem for Bush - we're not liberal elites, or members of the press or blacks - and we're NOT going to be played for fools.

[Omaha Note]

While at first attempting to get the nomination WITHOUT conservatives, now Bush seems to want a conservative credential (by whatever means necessary!).

Is that REALLY his strategy? So they bussed in a whole load of Jeb supporters. Call me suspicious, but WHOM did they vote for? Would they really go through all this trouble for a last place finish? Did the Jebbies have instructions to vote for anyone but Walker? Or maybe anyone that would allow the intelligentsia to dismiss CPAC as a bunch of Paulistas? < /ConspiracyHat >

A Bush is a Bush is a Bush. I am DONE with the stinking Bushes. I could care less about any of them. If this slug gets the RINO nomination, I will skip over his name just like I did that bum from Taxsatussus. I simply jump them on the ballot and keep voting for the ones I agree with. There is NOTHING a Bush can say that would ever get me to vote for them. Look at GW. The guy has disappeared off the map. As if he had died. He never speaks out, he never offers suggestions or opinions. It’s the ole, ex presidents should not speak out about the current prez. BS. The dims have slaughter GW since he beat Algore. But not ole GW. He safely back on the ranch, riding his pony, slugging cold ones.

I knew it!

[minnesota_bound]

Bused in supporters. He does what a democrat would do.
Who paid for the bus fair?

[minnesota_bound]

fare.... need an edit button please : )

[ontap]

Rand does the same thing....straw polls are a measure of how good the candidate is at rigging the results!!!
