    And the money quote from the article: ““I was telling a friend, ‘this must have been how the Politburo felt,’ ” he said.”

    “Jeb is like the customer service agent at Verizon when the power lines go down,”

    12 Thanks for that. Forgot about the Paulson beef. An honest mistake though. That would be like having dirty thoughts about your father. GAnalYst
