So Sad: Jeb Bush Has Been Reduced To Bragging About Being On Every Ballot
Mediaite ^ | 1/2/16 | Tommy Christopher

Posted on 01/03/2016 8:23:59 AM PST by jimbo123

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.

It feels so good to be able to publically denounce the GOPe and their lame candidates by virtue of ignoring Jeb!

I honestly don’t think he had a chance right out of the gate. Even if Trump was not in this, you’d have Cruz, Rubio, Fiorina all at the top fighting it out...luckluster debates, no one paying any attention.

He’s actually the best thing that ever could happen to Trump.

Can’t wait to to see the New York Polls.

I guess that Jeb is willing to play this out to it’s inevitable,sad,sick conclusion.

I still have hope that his Mom will grab him by the ear and drag him off the stage.

Best chuckle of the morning, so far.

Titanic and deck chairs come to mind. Bush will have the best organized failing campaign in the history of campaigns.

In that case we can assume that he’ll get at least one vote.

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.

A couple of weeks ago, Bush was trying to paint a happy face on his campaign by saying he was glad he wasn't the front-runner, what with all that pressure, etc. He was happy at being in 5th or 7th place.

Several days after that, Fiorina was parroting almost the same line — that she was happy not being the front-runner and being in the single digits.

Nothing sad about it at all. There are very, very few things in life that make more sense than the utter failure of Jeb to acquire more than single digit support. Of course, the satisfaction of seeing him fall on his ass has the potential to be to be topped by him dropping out of the race altogether.

He certainly has that going.

Maybe JEB will remain in politics as Chris Bell (D-Houston) has.

- He was a member of Houston’s city council who then ran for mayor of Houston and lost.
- He became a US congressman who lost his seat to a black Democrat after redistricting so, as a lame duck, he launched an ethics charge against Tom DeLay to help the Rats take back Congress.
- He then ran for governor of Texas and lost.
- He then ran for state Senate and lost.
- He then ran for mayor of Houston again and lost.

Jeb doesn’t get it. We don’t want his STEADY hand bringing in more cheap labor from 3rd world hellholes.

Even if he can do it with style and grace. We don’t want ANY illegals living in the United States.

Period.

Jeb - reach into your mind and realize our country IS NOT YOURS TO GIVE AWAY.

Where’s Jebadio on the popularity scale.......a minus .001?

He’s a loser and needs to throw in the towel UNLESS, the GOP has plans for his “revival” as they select their chosen candidate. Nothing would surprise me.

Obama ran against the Bush name and won 2 terms by doing so. The Bush name is toxic.

The GOPestablishment is just now seeming to realize that. They are trying to find an alternate, but they are not having much luck. Kasich never caught on. Fiorina never caught on. Carson never caught on. Rubio is sort of coasting, but when he said he was bored as a senator, he ended his political career.

The GOP have been clamoring for years for a 'bigger tent'. Well, Trump is bringing numerous factions to the tent and the GOPelites are balking and crying. Trump appeals to the blue collar works, the Hispanics and the Blacks. So, where did the GOPelites think the 'bigger tent' factions would come from? Illegals converted to legal status?

I see things playing out like this, because the media loves this kind of stuff. REmember when they were running after Hillary van?

1. Bernie Sanders is going to beat Hillary in NH and quite possibly in IOwa too, or come very very close that the media will play up.
2. Trump will be ahead in a presidential poll of New YOrkers. The media will go crazy reporting this.
3. There will be another terrorist attack on our soil before the Iowa caucuses.
4. Trump will appear soon at a rally in a football stadium with 50,000 people showing up to hear him.
5. Trump will win every primary, and will win every state in the election.
6. Bush and the rest of them will eventually coalesce around Trump, why? Because he will go to them and convince them that’s for the good of the country to do so, and he will welcome their support of him.

I do not want to see Jeb drop out, and I suspect neither do you until after the final primary. So long as Jeb, Christie, and Rubio stay in the race together, they divide the big government, pro-Amnesty RINO vote three ways. That's a very good thing.
