“Cable pundits telling him to lose the top hat”, Bush told an enthusiastic crowd gathered today at the Tampa Garden Club in Florida.

“The basic point with Marco isn’t that he’s not a good person or he’s not a gifted politician; everybody can see that”.
It is hard to overstate the importance of New Hampshire for the presidential hopes of Jeb Bush.
Bush has said recently, that implementing the plan as quickly as he did was a mistake and that he shouldn’t have moved on so quickly to his next rollout.
He and Rubio spent Monday jockeying for institutional credentials.
“I can’t control other people’s campaigns”, he said.
“I wouldn’t say all – I don’t love them all”, he added. And if there are policy differences between the candidates, we look forward to discussing those.
When Jeb came up with a line on the trail in Florida that worked, W. just swiped it. When Jeb said, “I am running for governor not because I am George and Barbara Bush’s son; I am running because I am George P. and Noelle and Jeb’s father”, W. began saying: “I am not running for governor because I am George Bush’s son”. “It doesn’t help me get better, per se”. “We’ve got a long way to go”.
In the short term, the effort may provoke Republicans to rally around Rubio, as billionaire donor Paul Singer did on Friday when he announced his support for Rubio.
Jeb Bush has yet again demonstrated his complete inability to attack Marco Rubio in any effective manner, and perhaps even revealed why he has such difficulty: It seems like a part of him actually prefers to lavish praise upon his former protégé. Go campaign all across the state.
Two of the five candidates in last month’s Democratic debate have already dropped out.
“The last debate was kind of ridiculous”, Bush told reporters in Iowa on Saturday.
Republican Jeb Bush launched a campaign reboot on Monday after weeks of negative headlines to present himself as a can-do conservative who will fight what he called a “new age of cynicism” that has seeped into the 2016 presidential race. Unfortunately, Bush shows no interest in doing so. A few analysts and economists we contacted said that $2,000 figure could be about right, considering the difference in the 25- and 28-percent tax brackets Bush proposes.
Bettilyon conceded, “I did like you saying American had a future”.
ALLEN: Bush drew many longtime friends and supporters to his events yesterday, people like Milton Aponte, an immigration lawyer who drove to Orlando from the Fort Lauderdale area.
That sentiment has not permeated the Bush inner circle.
Bush insists that it’s just the beginning of the campaign, but he doesn’t have a lot of time.
The irony could not be greater.
“Show heart. Campaign in a way that I can show that I’m a leader, not a talker”.
RICK WILSON: You have to blow Donald Trump out of the field if you’re Jeb Bush. Rubio countered with an endorsement from U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, or one of the two front-runners.
“Most people thought ‘Well, you [Bush] can’t ever run out of money, ‘ but we know that’s not true”, said McManus. He never had an obvious broad base within the party.

“I don’t mean this disrespectfully at all: I don’t follow every word of what you guys record or write”, he said, explaining how he stays focused amid the lousy press lately.
