Sucked up enough contributions so he figures it’s time to exit, until Jeb who had the war chest ready, and now has to convince investors that he was worth throwing their money away on his behalf...

When the brash Trump and 2 other senators are polling way ahead of him in his own home state the writing is on the wall.

This is about freeing up John McCain to campaign for an establishment candidate.

You also had Graham taking his name off the ballot rather than being a zombie candidate with no support or money but still on the ballot. The deadline was today I believe.

Damn! Now, who am I going to vote for?

The Donald gave us Lindsey's phone number. Maybe call him and ask who to support.

Now Lindsey’s 0.1% support will bring Jeb up to 7.1 rather than his previous 7% in the polls.

Thought Lindsey was going to have a rotating first dude, but Reggie Love already took both of those positions in Obola’s White Hutt.
