1. We haven't had enough "Bushies" in the White House.......We have had two to many.

One was a disaster.....two was a catastrophe.

3. Don't forget Franklin Pierce--he was a Porgie ancestor through his momma--another failure.

They've had more than enough shots to get it right. They need to just STOP.

2. He should listen to his mother.

4. If that isn't telegraphing "I'm thinking about running"

I don't know what is. I have to wonder if he's trying to preemptively spook anyone from running against him.

5. Listen to your mother Jebbie, for once she was right.

7. Doesn't matter what he says now. or if he runs in 2016...

His own mother's quote will become indelible.
