I honestly just feel realy bad for him. yeah his politics are crap, but holy poo poo. this man can not win in life right now. this was probaly supposed to be an easy primary for him. now he is draging his mother out of bed/retirement to try prop up the House Bush again.

Part of me thinks that this entire election has been the Bush family playing a big prank on Jeb.

He wished it could be as respectable and orthodox as spying. But somehow in his hands the traditional tools and attitudes were always employed toward mean ends: cloak for a laundry sack, dagger to peel potatoes, dossiers to fill up dead Sunday afternoons ...

You know W. is loving loving it. All the poo poo Jeb's been giving him over how great he was running Florida while W. failed to achieve anything after 2004?

He's the horrible person still trying when it's painfully apparent he'll never win and wasting a bunch of people's money. He could call it quits any day now. Any embarrassment he experiences is his own fault, and if his poor old mother slips her walker on the NH icy sidewalk, it's going to be his drat fault if she breaks a hip.

Quit now Jebby! Think of your family.

Rubio isn't lazy, he's just cautious.

Why would he need to be cautious? Because Rubio sneaks. He sneaks, and his colleagues in the Senate, such as Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins, hate him for it.

Olympia Snowe has been out of the Senate since 2013 and only overlapped with Rubio for two years.

Plenty of Senators treat the Senate like a stepping stone, but most aren't as blatant about it as Rubs is.

What's weird is that NOBODY in the press seems interested in vetting the Boy in the Bubble.

Did you see Rick Santorum trying to name an accomplishment by Marco Rubio in the Senate yesterday?

It took him 3 MINUTES folks. And what he finally came up with is that Marco helped oppose some amendment to a bill at one point.

Folks, let me tell you, they're already saving a spot for this guy on Mount Rushmore. :rolleyes:

No really though, this is the kind of crap we've come to expect from our so-called leaders in Washington D.C.

Folks, I'm a governor. I actually have to DO things. I HAVE executive experience, and the boy in the bubble just doesn't.

You are a very good poster and I respect your opinion on most things but, that is one of the dumbest things I have ever seen posted.

A stepping stone to what? loving God status? You're talking about stepping up from being a U.S. Senator, 1 of only 100 people in the world, for fucks sake.

Chris, nice to see you here - People, listen, I won't do this a lot, but, look, here's the story OK? The George Washington Bridge. What a disaster. That shutdown, do you remember? All over the news. Chris likes to say he didn't know. How do you have breakfast with people every day of your lives and not know? They're closing up the largest bridge in the world — the biggest in the United States of America — traffic flowing during rush hour, people can't get across for six, seven hours. Ambulances. Fire trucks. Amazing, what a disaster.

So think about it - no, no just think about it - His people never said to him we're closing up the George Washington Bridge. No, they never said that, they're talking about the weather? Right? I mean, can you believe that?

So let me just say this. Chris knew about it, he knew about it. Totally knew about it. Look, it's called life, you gotta be smart in life. I would say there's less than 1 percent chance he didn't know about the bridge. It could be, but I doubt it. He knew about it. They mentioned it. It's so simple people. You can't vote for someone that will lie to cover his rear end. I promise you, I promise, this would have never happened with Trump. Not with Trump.

Listen folks, I know Donald Trump. We get along great. And we're both running for the same office, so things are gonna get heated every now and then.

But let me tell you what's REALLY heated right now - the entire world is burning because of Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama's disastrous foreign policy.

This is serious folks. Showtime is over. We are not electing an entertainer-in-chief. Showmanship is fun, but it is not the kind of leadership that will truly change America.

This is not a game where you're puffing out your chest and who can be the biggest toughest guy in public. It's about who can run the country. And I believe the people of New Hampshire will make their decision based on what they think is best for the country. So you know, I'm not going to get into a tit-for-tat with Donald. I'm bigger and better than that, I'm not going to do it.
