(Alledgedly) Jeb Bush: A main advisor for my Middle East policy is my brother George

I think everyone expected this really. Dubya would obviously have influence on Jeb.

I just can't believe Jeb was dumb enough to say it, even privately.

With Jeb Bush making it look easy for Democrats to win, perhaps the liberal half of America can feel like they have more wiggle room to choose Bernie Sanders and still win the general election.
 
It's funny that Rush, Hannity, Levin, etc. are all bashing Bush now because I remember in 2005-2006 they were Bush's biggest fans. Only Michael Savage was the one I recall who was against Bush during his peak.

Levin in particular would say "THAT'S MY PRESIDENT!"

He's polling at 5% in Republican primary polls. He's in like seventh place! And that's before this quote.

The only person saying that Jeb is inevitable right now is Jeb, because the only way for Jeb to win the nomination is if he's inevitable. But if he were really inevitable he'd be ahead by now.

It's just my hunch.

I have nothing scientific to back this up, so I will take the criticism.

I just think the Bush machine will prevail again. It is still very early.

I think it will be Bush V Clinton again.
 
Well, we often learn best from failure, so there's that.

Still a dumb thing on his part to even hint at, much less outright admit.
 
Saying "George W Bush is my advisor" in any capacity is a surefire way of imploding your campaign.

Well it was fun while it lasted. Goodbye Jeb, my Hispanic friend.
