Former Florida Governor, Republican presidential candidate, and World's First Human Sad Trombone Jeb Bush has been having more and more difficulty convincing anyone he will ever be president, least of all himself, but things got sad even by Jeb's standards Sunday morning. Fox News Sunday anchor Chris Wallace tried to get Jeb to feel the fork by gently reminding him that there are these things called polls, and they measure how much or how little people care about what you have to say. Jeb sounded a pathetically "optimistic" note:
Wallace: Did you fail to come up with a compelling message for voters? I understand you want to talk about the future, but the past does give some indication as to what went wrong and what you need to improve.

Least it shows some organization but as GOPES go really no surprize there. The trick is wining districts with pledged delegates. Particularly in states where delegates are elected.
Bush: Chris, I respect your world. Your world is all about process. My world
is about connecting with voters in these early states to build momentum.
Bush is so out of touch that he doesn't realize that the point Wallace was making
is that Bush IS NOT CONNECTING!
Time for Yeb to go tarpon fishing.
I hope JEB stays in. We need everyone of those GOPe’s in the race to keep splitting the GOPe vote.
Certainly possible. I would like to see Burnie beat Herself. It would be a nice cap to her political career.
Meanwhile, Trump will win big in the primaries and will start moving his rallies to football stadiums as the weather gets warmer. When the establishment Republicans realize they are not going to beat him, they will embrace him as the GOP nominee and there will be no serious 3rd party challenge - on the Republican side.
He’s going to lose 50 times from a position of strength.
Several weeks ago, Kasich was complaining to an interviewer that his low poll numbers were because people didn’t know who he was. That was AFTER 4 NATIONAL debates. Well, John, even after the 5th debate, they either still don’t know who you are or they just do not care that you are running.
****************************************************
Kasich needs to get the message out more that his father was a mail man.
He is banking on being appointed. Don’t doubt that the still extensive Bush machine is working towards that with a sabotaged convention. He will not bow out. Peewee Priebus and Co. still have to cast their magic. Only if and when that fails will he bow out.
Yeb’s revised 2016 strategy:
1) raise lots of money
2) stay under the radar by showing in 5 or 6th place in the polls
3) file to be on every state ballot when nobody is watching you
4) hope every other candidate forgets to get on every ballot
5) win nomination when every other candidate drops out upon realizing they can’t win without votes
6) blame the process when you lose the general election because 50% of Republican and independent voters don’t bother to show up to vote
There 9 people under 30 that will vote for JEB, they are related.
It would be better if he was eliminated from every ballot!
Jeb had to make a case that somehow he was going to be better, consistently more conservative than Bush 1 & 2.
He’s failed miserably.
Read my lips: No more Bush!
Well, congratulations.
Slight edit
Yeb! - get it through your thick head our country IS NOT YOURS TO GIVE AWAY.
Better... much better...
