My theory that Bush really wants to drop out but can't yet because of all the money behind him, is supported further by the fact that Bush is trying to burn his money as fast as possible. Who in their right minds would publish a 47 page glossy JEB! magazine, or send out LCD screen mailers? Someone who is desperately trying to claim he's broke and wants to get out of the race. I've didn't even know LCD mailers were a thing, they must have cost at least $20 each and went to thousands of homes.

the_paradigm_shift posted:As much money as he still has behind him he's stuck until March at the least. He's not stuck, his donors are trying to get him to drop out. If Rubio does well in NH Donors are going to start jumping ship en masse. I'd say he's been on damage control since IA began, begging people to not switch until at least New Hampshire. Jeb Bush said the beauty of low expectations lied in the ease in outperforming them. He under performed his already abysmal expectations, coming in behind a guy who dropped out already. The Bush family is already expending political capital at a ridiculous rate and asking people to pour money into one of the most embarrassing super tuesday losses ever is something that even Jeb might think twice about.

Congressman Matt Salmon (R-AZ), cofounder of the House Freedom Caucus, has endorsed Marco Rubio, further cementing Ted Cruz's position as "that guy that everyone hates." Meanwhile, on Morning Joe, Santorum was asked what Rubio's accomplishments were: "The bottom line is there isn't a lot of accomplishments, Joe, and I just don't think it's a fair question to say – over the last four years where nothing has happened and then blame one person because he didn't get accomplishments done. Neither did President Obama. Well, I know [Rubio] included something that went after the insurance companies in the most recent omnibus. He fought for that, to stop bailing out insurance companies. That's one thing I'm familiar that I just saw recently." a rousing candidate indeed

Asking Santorum what Rubio's accomplishments are, Santorum says you can't blame Rubio for doing nothing because Obama didn't do anything either. Nobody does nothing, and it's no one's fault. It's like the story about Val Kilmer and Marlon Brando refusing to leave their respective trailers until the other guy came out. That's a lovely reason, Rick. I'm asking why we should promote Rubio to the highest office in the country and you're telling me that he's only been a lovely, lazy worker who doesn't show up or do anything useful because everyone has been. Well, then why shouldn't we fire all of you?

By the way, it's still totally possible that Cruz wins the nomination, it's just less likely than Rubio winning, for the reason revealed in the Salmon endorsement. But Cruz has a ton of cash and the ability to make Super Tuesday bloody. If they tie coming out of that, March is going to be brutal.

Saudi Arabia – I like the Saudis. They’re very nice. I make a lot of money with them. They buy all sorts of my stuff. All kinds of toys from Trump. They pay me millions and hundreds of millions. But you know what? They make $1 billion a day, folks. And whenever they’re in trouble, our military takes care. You know what we get? Nothing. South Korea – crazy is right. Right? Who said that? Stand up. Stand up. He said it’s crazy. It’s true. It’s true. It’s crazy. They make $1 billion a day and we get nothing.

And I am so tired of politicians. Nobody knows them better than me. I know them. I know them. I deal with them. If you can’t get rich dealing with politicians, there’s something wrong with you. Honestly. I know them. The problem is with politicians and this is almost all of them, not all of them but the problem with politicians it’s perseverance. They work. They try. But they only want to keep their job. That’s 99% of what they want. I get calls from Senators like Rubio. Could we come and see you? You know, you have these campaign finance limits, which are actually a good thing…I even tell them – Senators call up, I send them a check – it’s easier. I say don’t bother. They want to fly from Washington to New York. I mean, how long. Come to my office and I’m allowed to give them what, $2,600 or something. I mean, like a whole day is wasted. And I say this is what they do? And that’s what they do from morning ’till night. Rubio? Give me a break, such a puppet.

Yesterday was rough. Feeling better today, although my 2016 GOP primary innocence is lost. The fight is on, and it's a fight we the people have yet to win. But I'm going keep my head up and at worst go down swinging. I wish SC was a caucus state so I could stick around the polling place for a few hours and preach some truth. Rubio has been annointed the establishments' boy, and they wouldn't do that unless he's going to play ball with the military-industrial complex, the global elites, the Wall-Street banks, the open-borders advocates, the Club for Growth/Chamber of Commerce, etc., etc., etc. The wait until NH is killing me. We have to make a stand, Trump HAS to win by double digits, and all I can do is watch and wait and place the nation's fate in the hands of a bunch of drat yankees.
