Trump just called Jeb Bush a puppet. Nice!

"The guy's going down the tubes! He's going down the tubes! He's got no energy."

Now he's coming out in favor of campaign finance reform, calling for making donors known. He says all of his Republican rivals are illegally colluding with their PACs.

I'm happy with this crowd. It is a mix of old and young that is skewing towards young. Lots (for Iowa) minorities. My gf has recognized a number of big money people for our section of Iowa. She says most she has seen at an event. This is very good.

The atmosphere is totally different from conservative things too. Upbeat and happier. More of a party. It is good.

Nah this is one of those cases where somebody is just shouting "I'll fix everything I'll fix everything"; I know it sounds appealing but there is no substance to this.

Does Trump's face look hosed up to anyone else or is there just a contrast issue with the tv at the Chinese restaurant I'm watching at? It looks like he has a rash or something.

Quote of the Day - "I'll tell you, taking out Saddam Hussein turned out to be a pretty good deal." ~Jeb Bush


Jeb! opened himself up to being smacked down hard on Iraq, and it sounds like Trump is doing just that. Remember:

Donald Trump posted:

"In July of 2004, I came out strongly against the war with Iraq because it was going to destabilize the Middle East. I am the only one on this stage who knew that and had the vision to say it. And that's exactly what happened. The region became totally destabilized.
The Donald smells weakness, and he pounces on weakness.
