Trump is getting conservatives to his camp while Bush is taking on disaffected left...perhaps deserting a sinking ship and Bush is a moderate lifeboat.

This early in the election period, Bush has only name recognition. IMHO he will drop from sight after the grassroots start to learn who the players are.

¡Yeb! is nearly indistiguishable for Hillary. If Cruz does not get the nomination, I’d rather it be Trump.

Jeb's entire campaign is based on two things:

1) Everyone knows my name
2) I've got more money than anyone else in the race

Now, with Trump, neither of those things matter. The first is no longer so significant and the second is blatantly untrue.

At this point all Jeb really has would be a bunch of ideas that appeal to Democrats.

Seems that those who consider Donald “extreme” like the agreeable (wimpy) moderation of Jeb.

Those who wish someone would speak forcefully about the major issues they believe, are attracted to Donald.

One group hates the tea party. Loves big business and get along without social issues.

The other group wants real change for the better on key issues.

As the campaign goes on, I’m not convinced Jeb will represent the first group. It will likely be Walker or that cuban guy from FL :-)

Donald will have an uphill battle in FL.

Jeb Bush may still have more apparent support than other more qualified candidates now, but it is simply because his PACs, the quisling RINO establishment, Democrats and media have sledged him into the ground.

But his CLEAR allegiance to Mexico, Mexican, Hispanic in general above all else will be the undercurrent that eventually compromises that hard soil into which he was pounded. He is willing to sell out our sovereignty to 40-50 million illegals, all in some misguided delusion they will be the tipping point to elect him. He is mistaken. He is also very much mistaken that I’d hold my nose and ever vote for him. That will not help me. So help me God.

The legacy mass media seems ready to print almost anything to get another Obama elected — Hillary or bush, very little policy difference and both unlikely to even try repairing much of obama’s damage to USA and the American people

“”Donald Trump joined it a month ago: Mr. Trump and Jeb Bush are rising””

That is the RINO plan

2 leftists at the top

If Mr. Trump’s negative ratings hobble him in the nomination fight, his supporters will be up for grabs.

I predict that 60% of them will go to Cruz. The rest of them will divide up the other 40%. (Sure wish I knew what went on at the Cruz/Trumo Meeting this past Wednesday.)

Jeb? has lots of money, so does Trump. In fact, Trump has 10,000 MILLION dollars. He could spend a boatload of his own money on his campaign and still have plenty left over....sorry, Jeb?

Remember all the tears that’ve been shed for poor illegal immigrants living in the shadows?

Well, maybe it’s time to shed tears for the poor wimpy Republican candidates who’ve been living in the shadows because they haven’t had the courage to speak up forcefully on important issues like Donald Trump has done.

America has serious problems. Either Ted Cruz and the other Conservative hopefuls stop dancing like butterflies and start stinging like bees a la Donald Trump, or they might as well get out of the ring.

Scott Walker is all of three points behind Trump in the latest Fox poll and that’s considered “in the dust??”

Do those Jeb supporters actually believe he could beat Hillary in the General Election, really?

Heck, I think he would lose to Bernie “Women fantasize about being Raped” Sanders.

“He’s not a war hero,” said Trump. “He was a war hero because he was captured. I like people who weren’t captured.”

Supposedly Trump said this at the at the Family Leadership Summit this morning about McCain.

They know Jeb will make an immediate left turn upon being innaugurated anyhow, just like the Republican whores in congress did after they were handed a landslide win.

Media matters trolls are all over these Trump threads. In fact sometimes two trolls are addressing one another.

I guess Trump really has the left scared. Plain talk is scary scary scary.

Everyone IS falling with just one exception: Ted Cruz.

Go look at the Real Clear Politics polls and you will see that I’m right.
