Did you ever notice how Cheney never seems to age? It's that way with all the Sith lords.

Lol!

I thought all the republicans did fairly well last night in the debate, but I'll lay $ratch down that Bush will pull out of the race within 3 weeks or so.

I think you're right. I don't think his heritage is much of an asset at this point.

The only thing he has going for him is his formidable war chest. But I don't see further contributions rolling in.

With 100 million dollars in his campaign bank it seems very doubtful Jeb will be leaving anytime soon.

Rubio ate his lunch last night.

...as an aside and speaking of low T, I figured that Gov. Jindal (who seems like a good dude), Lindsay Graham (who doesn't), and the other 2 back of the bus low-polling Repubs who conducted the other debate are already gone. Did anyone bother watching the other debate?

Timid. . .
Bush'll be gone soon. Now if we could get Hilary out too. . .

Tami--you're sooooo right. Why don't we have a 4 week long
season then get it over with, like most of the rest of the world. . .

At least his Brother kept us safe....

Yeah, that World Trade Center thing worked out really well. Brother George had it all in hand,

Brother Marvin was right on it.

You know the fix is in when Kasich, who pols exactly the same as Jindal, but since he's bought and paid for by K street gets to go to the big boy debate and Jindal, a very successful and articulate governor doesn't..

Grahmnesty, Kasich and Bush are all in the wrong party's debate.

They'd all make great moderate Democrat candidates.

Man, I'd bet big bucks he will NOT be the nominee. I'd be able to retire early. Bush will NOT be the nominee. Trump won't be it either.

Nope. It's Romney after a deadlocked convention. Jindal is an ass, especially as he was an 'anchor' baby himself. But now he's against it. WTF? and Cruz, by the Teabag party, isn't citizen enough to run for president. Can't have it both ways is what I say.

Things are getting better for Jeb! Bush. They've been able to successfully Photoshop the liver spots from his left hand away. Right photo. However, they used Obamas brothers hand as the template. Couple months from now maybe the liver spots on the right one will be gone too.




Maybe it's an attempt to get the black vote. Paging Locker or Cosmic to the proofreading help desk.....

I believe that Bush will win the nomination.

Trump is the shiny coin being used to distract people from actually getting a chance to analyze the statements from the other GOP candidates. The fact is that our foreign policy is mucking in such a quagmire that only Hillary Clinton has the qualifications to keep us(meaning ALL of us and not just the USA) our of a world war. People, especially GOPers, will never give Obama the credit he deserves for avoiding it to date, but I believe Bush is the only GOP candidate with what it takes to take the next dance on the card.

If by some strange, outlandish, bizarre turn of events, Trump(edited, for typo that said "Bush") really did win the election, all I could suggest is to duck and cover.

Bush is the only Repuglacant that stands any chance in the General. The rest are fools.

Rubio will be the Republican Nominee. Incidentally, he has the best chance in the General Election against Clinton. Democrats would love to run against the wingnuts, aka Trump, Cruz, Carson, et al. But saner heads in the Republican establishment won't let that happen.

I don't disagree with you, Happy.

However, Bush is hamstrung by Trump, who takes up almost all of the space in media, with his outlandish pronouncements. So much so, that candidates like Bush are forced to spend whatever time they have on page one responding to what they think about Trump.

Bush has spend HUGE dollars in advertising, and has nothing to show for it. He might as well have burned it.

And let it be noted, that there is particular animosity between Bush and Trump. Trump is loving the effect he is having on Bush, and has no real reason to back off, whatsoever. Even if he loses primaries, he can still such the media oxygen out of the tent, leaving none for Bush.

Probably the primary beneficiaries of this are Cruz (unelectable) and Rubio, who might stand a chance in Hell.
