Jeb Bush names Romney, McCain veteran as campaign manager
Sun Herald ^ | 6/8/15 | Lesley Clark

Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush on Monday named a veteran of Mitt Romney and John McCain’s presidential campaigns as his campaign manager, a week before he makes his own bid official.

Bush named Danny Diaz as campaign manager, a position that was widely expected to go to Dave Kochel, a Republican operative with experience in Iowa politics.

Bush senior adviser Sally Bradshaw said in a statement that Kochel “can best position us for success by playing a key leadership role focusing on how Jeb wins primaries, caucuses, and ultimately the general election.” She said Diaz’s “skill at rapidly moving content and campaign organization makes him perfectly suited for running the day-to-day operations.”

Diaz’s appointment -- first reported in the Wall Street Journal -- was widely viewed as a shakeup, as Bush has slid in early polls and struggled last month over how to answer a question about the Iraq war started by his brother.

I guess the commander of Hirohito's kamikazes was too old or dead.

More background:

Jeb’s advisors are fighting over Spanish-language TV ads with Columba that they just shot and what the grassroots are going to think of Columba not speaking English.

Grab the popcorn!

It’s like he’s not in it to win it, just for the matching funds.

I've got some money to send to Jeb. It was originally meant for his brother.

Now DONATE! The survival of Mexico depends on it!

They’re fighting over Columba’s Spanish-language TV ads!

Certain Jeb advisors don’t think they will go over well with the grassroots!

This is getting good!

I’m sure Mitt & Juan McLame wrote glowing job references for Señor Diaz.

Of course, they could just do their ads in English and talk about what a wonderful country this is. They can send their Spanish speaking voters EFL course materials.

Getting the old designated loser team back together.

They know how to lose graciously.

And in an earlier report I read, he was touted as being a ‘conservative’. LOL!

If you lose often enough .... you might as well pain a BIG L on your forehead.

I think I’ll go find them a paintbrush
