1/ Pierce Bush, the grandson of the late President George H.W. Bush, lost on #SuperTuesday.

Was it a family name that doomed his congressional run, or was it his campaigning? https://t.co/svirNS45Lu

snip--"Pierce Bush’s failure to reach the runoff suggests that the market for the Bush family brand of compassionate conservatism is nowhere near as strong as it was 20 to 30 years ago when his grandfather and uncle enjoyed widespread support within the Texas GOP," Jones said. "At the same time, it is important not to read too much into this race, since Pierce Bush’s candidacy was undercut from the outset by the launch of his campaign less than three months prior to election day as well as the legitimate critiques against him of being a carpetbagger who only moved into the district after launching his candidacy."

The 22nd District is one of seven seats that the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee has prioritized flipping this cycle in Texas.

Whoever wins the May runoff will face Democrat and former foreign service officer Sri Preston Kulkarni."

1. I read that too many

Young people are still fighting his Uncle’s war. Junior tarnished the Bush name.

Lying people into a 19 year war and deep recession is not easily forgotten.

2. Repubs dumped "Compassionate Conservatism" for "Internet Troll Punk Chic"...
