BREAKING….EVEN A TURD IN THE HAND IS WORTH TWO OF JEB BUSH

A new poll released in the last half-hour by Bloomberg reveals just how big a problem Jeb Bush has in Iowa. His vocal support for immigration reform and national education standards is clearly bothering many among the state’s Republican base.

A Bloomberg Politics/Des Moines Register Iowa Poll of likely participants in the state’s 2016 Republican caucuses shows nearly a large majority consider Bush’s positions on those issues to be a deal-killer, or something they’d consider when deciding whether to support him: 68% have a problem with his position on these issues. The poll reveals that Jeb lags behind even non-establishment candidates looking at running. Former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee and Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky scored the highest marks on a set of issues of interest to many Republicans.

Bush had the support of just 8% of likely Republican caucus-goers. So even at the first hurdle towards 2016, he has only a 1 in 12 chance of being assassinated.

NO! It’s hard to see it not happening without a Third Party. Armstrong Economics believes there will be a strong Third Party appearing. I’ve yet to see it.

Calling people ‘socialists’ etc is, I suspect, only a way of diverting attention from the people who have really corrupted American ideals. The same thing goes on in the UK with opponents of fracking etc

Another Bush or Clinton in the White House would be such a blatant affront to democracy that it’s hard to see it happening. The people really pulling the strings want the appearance of open polls, so that the masses can keep on waving flags and hailing their liberty. I imagine Clinton and Bush are thinking of running merely to clear the way for the real candidates.

the Americans are funny they believe that socialism is the cause of all there problems,they have never had a socialist government,they believe taxation is a socialist invention,yet i remember taxation existing in Roman times & probably before & they can not see that there Nation was built on truer valuations of work rent & money & only the distortion of these values have led us to where we are today ,i am now classed has a socialist,yet i have only ever called for the very values that made America strong & great be the economics of the world for these values are the same to America that Christianity was to Rome

Interesting that you think the divine Elizabeth extreme because the US electorate doesn’t like her. Not a correlation I’ve would’ve made, but each to his own.

The establishment Republicans like Jeb love cheap immigrant labor just like the Democrats like immigrants because they vote Democratic. So the working men and women get millions of immigrants turned lose in the economy driving down wages making it a race to the bottom for the middle class. This is all going to end badly.

This shows how Republicans are painting themselves into a corner. They’re going out of their way to anger Latinos and Blacks. Although Cruz and Rubio are Latinos, each one has to dress up in the stance of an extreme right winger in order to overcome the prejudices of typical Republicans. Cruz, representing Texas in the Senate, knows that Texan Republicans suspect he’s a wetback, so he takes stances on immigration that go beyond the extreme. Similarly, Rubio in Florida knows that non-Latino Republicans think he’s a greaser, so he caters to their most extreme views.

As to the Democrats, Warren is the kiss of death — in 2012 Obama carried Massachusetts over Romney by a margin of 23.2%. Massachusetts is the most liberal-leaning state in the nation, yet Warren won by a margin of barely 7%, which proves she couldn’t have won without Obama’s coat-tails. Last year she campaigned hard for select Democratic candidates for the Senate in other states, and she caused the popularity of each such candidate to sink. At least one of them might have won had Warren stayed away. Warren thinks she’s scoring points by blaming it all on megabankers, yet she backs the fiat monetary regime that casts megabankers as facilitators of the spend-and-borrow policies that Warren champions.

If Hillary bows out and Warren gets the nomination, a third-party candidate will emerge to attract moderate Republicans and moderate Democrats.

Bush hasn’t a flying f**ks chance. Demographics are completely against Republican Presidents not to mention the toxic Bush name. Sorry but it’s Hilary’s to lose. Her only possible opposition is ill health, Senator Warren or a third party candidate coming out of left field, as Ross Perot did in 1992 throwing Bush41’s reelection to Clinton.

Clearly, Jeb needs a makeover. How about dropping the ‘Bush’ surname in favour of his great grandfather’s Christian name, Prescott?
