The bizarre thing is that Jeb would probably have been the best president of the three, but W. ruined it so badly for the entire Bush legacy that he never stood a chance. At worst, Jeb would have been a president on par with HW, who was by no means a great president but was certainly not horrible either - which is to say, average.

In a way, it is a shame because I think that Jeb is the best one of the Bushes. Of course, that's not saying much. If it wasn't for the first 2 Bushes, Jeb might have had a chance. We are tired of Bushes and Clintons. Bush went out of style.

One exit poll:

Big education split in Trump support--24% college grad, 40% non college grad

You out a lot of stock in those stats, he won nearly every demographic in New Hampshire, but I'm sure you gave him credit for that right? Also your poll numbers are about as accurate as the WSJ marist numbers, I live here and I follow the state polling numbers closely..

CNN Exit polls don't show that.

I'm watching Fox coverage (imagine that since Megyn Kelly is on) but I have to say, I really enjoy Juan Williams' commentary on everything. And even though he's seriously pro-Obama, he tends to have good analysis on everything.

Fox was smart as hell to pick him up when they did.

I believe Jeb! could have had a much better showing. But he came out of the gate with such arrogance, telling the GOP voter base that he was going to win the nomination without them.

He was so cocksure that he was going to be able to outspend other candidates and have the GOP puppet masters pave an easy path for his nomination.

Had he come out of the gate with a different approach, he likely would have built a more fortified position that would have scared off some other entrants.

I've never gone off on Juan Williams or stated a dislike for him. He's smart and generally gives decent commentary even though I don't always agree with it.

Trust me, there's far worse commentators out there.

Rubio was courting Bush supporters hard during his speech tonight. Honestly, I'm very pleased Cruz is running in third, too bad he didn't finish behind Carson. But honestly I think Trump wrapped up the nomination tonight. Bush is out, but I think Rubio and Kasich split his voting bloc. Cruz will continue to be a snake, and Carson supporters will hang around as long as he does. Trump has quite the lead in Nevada according to polls, so he heads into Super Tuesday with three strong victories and second in Iowa. I know it is early in the process, but the writing is on the wall imo.
