Jeb Bush: ‘Trump will be in decline’ by next GOP debate:
Poor Jeb. I'm surprised someone still wants to listen to him.

You want to know the chances for Trump to win just watch the border. There’ll be a tsunami to beat “the wall”.

As far as the leaks go, maybe this is the only way he can get the media to pay attention to him now. IMO, he should be dropped to the junior league debate, but the MSM will never do this.
Either Jeb or Rubio will be out before Florida votes. They will not let both of them split the Florida vote handing all of their delegates to some other candidate. It's the reason the Florida Republican Party moved themselves back in the primary voting order. They thought that by the time they voted Rubio would be out of money. I think they thought Jeb would also have the money to weather Super Tuesday, but since he's struggling they will have no problem backstabbing Jeb to throw their support to Rubio...but one of them has to go before Florida votes.

Since Rubio has no record of accomplishment, it's hard to take him down because he hasn't done anything so there is nothing to criticize. That's why he's been targeted for the personal stuff. The other candidates need to keep pounding him on illegal immigration. It's the only record he has and it's bad. A person whose name rhymes with Bump could shed some light on Rubio's donor who wants the illegals to flow in, for the cheap labor and Rubio being the perfect meat puppet for that donor. Jeb can't pound Rubio on illegal immigration because Jeb's on the wrong side of that argument, too. They could also make a dent in Rubio by reminding voters he cozied up to McCain and Graham when he first arrived at the Senate. Any photos that show Rubio, Graham and McCain together would be good

I contend that it's in Trump's best interest to keep Carson and all of the really low number guys in the race. Carson's voters are not Trump's voters. Trump's voters like Trump because of what they think he can do/accomplish. Carson's voters like Carson for who he is as a person. If Carson goes down, Trump has a problem because of who might inherit Carson's voters. It won't be Trump.

Wish I could see the ads being shown in New Hampshire.

Poor Jeb. The chosen one has become a desperate man.
It's like test driving that new car and getting it back to the lot and the sales guy asks for the keys back. "You mean I can't just have it?"

Jeb! is spouting wishful thinking. He's so far behind and has no chance, really. His supporters are flocking to Rubio. How many times have we heard that Trump will leave the race, and yet he's still here and leading?

Why don't his handlers (or his parents...same thing I guess) teach him to not to say these foolish things?

I'm hoping that Trump isn't afraid to take the gloves off. Everyone understands that if you get tossed out of a nightclub, you're likely to be roughed up a little bit. I don't know why it should be any different with deported illegals. Bang 'em up a little bit, send 'em home with shiners. Better yet, put 'em on a train and send them to facilities where we can get a little work outta 'em in order to compensate for the damage done. Likewise with the Muslims, and blacks if they're asking for it.

Donald J. Trump ‏@realDonaldTrump 17h17 hours ago
.@WSJ reports that @GOP getting ready to treat me unfairly—big spending planned against me. That wasn’t the deal!
I still maintain that Trump is a secret DNC operative.

Trump's popularity is huge. Every rally he holds draws thousands of supporters, and the excitement of the rallys have been getting more intense as the weeks wear on. No other candidate is attracting the kind of support he has. Least of all Cruz.
