I had absolutely no interest in having another Bush in the White House after Bush #2 just about ruined this country in his 8 years of dartboard decision-making deserving of a dunce cap.
So I wasn’t too keen on Jeb!’s presidential run, even if he was supposed to be the smart brother. That’s such a low bar.
But now that Jeb! has quit the Republican Presidential Primary race, and we are left with Donald Trump, Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio as the front-runners, Jeb! is starting to look pretty good. Maybe if we start the chant, he’ll reconsider …
Jeb!
Jeb!
Jeb?
I’m afraid it is probably too late and Trump’s people likely have already taken Jeb! out to a backwater part of South Carolina (that covers 99.8% of the state) to dump the body.
It is hard to fathom that Jeb! got drubbed in this Republican primary race so thoroughly, yet he will not go down in history as the biggest political failure in the family. One last time, put your hands together for Jeb!

Like Ted Kennedy, the name only gets you so far. Paul Ryan is probably kicking himself for not running – at least he had SOME reasonable ideas. Maybe Jeb is relieved to be out of this mess? I guess we’ll find out when he starts working for Fox News.

The Bush name and $5 will get you a Starbucks. At least Jeb has slunk silently away without a Chappaquiddick moment like Ted. You are right, on to Fox News, where failures can feel at home.
