Though it's amazing he blew through $100 million without even a mouse turd to show for it.

All the other loons have a high chance of self destructing. Bush hangs back in the weeds (not by choice, of course), and when the others have talked themselves out of contention, he's the last candidate acceptable to the repug establishment left standing.

(20,847 posts)6. Because he feels there's room on the bottom for title worst president ever
His brother sucked, but he's a can do man for bottom rung.
