Alas, Poor J.E.B.!, They Know You Well

The people that best know House of Bush princeling and low-energy plutocrat John Ellis "J.E.B.!" Bush are the people of Florida, his adopted home state where he served as Governor for eight years.  So it's telling that the latest poll from Florida shows J.E.B.! badly trailing both vulgarian egomaniac Donald "Rump" Trump and crackpot surgeon Dr. Ben "On Meds?" Carson.  J.E.B.! comes in third with only 13% behind Rump at 28% and Ben On Meds at 17%.  Fellow Floridian and majority shareholder in Aquafina bottled water Sen. Marco "Glug Glug" Rubio fares even more poorly with Florida voters with just 10%.  However, it's J.E.B.!'s numbers that stun:  the former popular governor and former frontrunner humiliated in his own state, where 47% think he should drop out (poor Glug Glug does even worse:  48% of Floridians think he should drop out).

Tomorrow's clown car bus "debate" should be interesting, now that Rump has ostensibly sworn off a third party run and the knives will be out for him.  J.E.B.! isn't known for wielding a knife, unless it's a butter knife at dinner in Kennebunkport, but these latest polls might suggest to him that he's got nothing to lose.

UPDATE: Maybe some of them have figured out that J.E.B.!'s tax "plan" would give the top one percent 53% of the tax cuts. Once a plutocrat….
