Fandor म्हणाले...: Go home JEB!
Your mommy is calling.

Dad has a pair of new socks for you.

Brother W wants to paint your portrait.

Have a good cry.

Brando म्हणाले...: Why his donors haven't dropped out I don't know. Maybe they have some idea he'll roar back in the next few primaries? I don't think that worked for Guiliani though. Early momentum makes all the difference.

Jeb just isn't compelling. It's hard to picture anyone getting excited about him, and there are many other options to choose from no matter where you stand. And Republicans aren't really into dynasties the way Democrats are.; २/२/१६, ८:०३ AM
Greg Hlatky म्हणाले...: I would have voted for him for half that.; २/२/१६, ९:५८ AM
john म्हणाले...: Didn't Steve Forbes end up spending about $10-15,000 a vote? It was all his money, true. The important point is however, that if Bush or Forbes had plowed either twice as much or half as much money into their campaigns, the cost per vote would have been twice or half as much.; २/२/१६, १०:१४ AM
mccullough म्हणाले...: He's been pissing away the money but it's only other people's money. Unlike paying taxes, the donations to his campaign or Super Pac were voluntary.

But what suckers are going to keep donating to Jeb. He'll be out of money soon because the donations will dry up; २/२/१६, १०:२८ AM
JAORE म्हणाले...: That money would go a lot further in urban areas where "walking around" money is more the norm. Like 100 times further.; २/२/१६, १२:२२ PM
Paul म्हणाले...: Jeb,

I'm very conservative. I voted for George W. both times (and still think highly of him.)

But Jeb, you ain't W. You don't seem to have your heart into it, and Jeb, money helps, but if what you say just does not ring true, then it won't help.

Yes, it's time to cash in and go home.; २/२/१६, १०:४२ PM
