There is a rumor going around that Jeb Bush will drop out of the GOP run for president on Monday, October 26th. I’d like to believe this rumor, but so far it’s only being reported by a few moderate web traffic sites. It’s long past due for Jeburrito to drop out of the race. Regardless if you like Trump or not, chances are you don’t like Jeb Bush. He has the lowest favorable rating of any GOP candidate, including Trump. Jeb Bush threw a tantrum in South Carolina about he’s got a lot of other cool things to do aside from being president. Time for Bush to pull a Scott Walker and just drop out. The Bush name is a liability, regardless if the GOP-e wants to admit it or not.
Remember that this just rumor right now. I’ll believe it when I actually see it. The arrogance of Jeb Bush and the entire Bush family makes this rumor seem like a pipe dream. Jeburrito would never have the class of a Scott Walker and drop out of the race even though he knows he has no shot. Would be nice though. One thing has become obvious. Marco Rubio is being set up as the GOP-e candidate to run against so called outsiders. Jeb Bush is history regardless if he drops out tomorrow or at a later date.

Jeb Bush is to drop out Monday according to political insiders and leaked memos from top aids to Jeb’s campaign team disclosed to the press this evening.
Jeb is in huge trouble as he has lost coveted ground to Marco Rubio, and the GOP nomination is all but assured for Donald Trump.
Mr. Trump’s surge in the polls took many for surprise, and he is still growing more powerful by the day.
“Jeb’s just blended into the second tier of the Republican pack,” said Doug Corn, an Ohio-based financial adviser and top fundraiser for George W. Bush who hasn’t donated to a candidate this year. “When you run for president, you have to be very charismatic, you have to articulate extremely well and you have to show unbelievable amounts of passion.”
The inability of Mr. Bush to seize and hold the front-runner position among the politically experienced Republicans running for the White House is a big factor in the fluidity of the party’s primary race. In the 2012 contest, nominee Mitt Romney was leapfrogged in polls by various rivals yet consistently hovered in second place, positioned to break to the top when the competition settled into a rhythm.
Mr. Bush’s lagging candidacy gives an incentive to candidates such as New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham to hope for a break and stay in the race, despite their own poor standing in polls and anemic fundraising.
