Campaign Insider: Bush Set To Withdraw From Presidential Race
Elect Leaders ^ | January 17, 2016

Posted on 01/17/2016 8:18:17 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

Jeb Bush based on the best case scenario is floundering like a fish out of water. Trying his best to make it back into the pond with the big fish (Trump, Cruz and Rubio) but unable to even get back near the shore. In fact he is set to hit the grill.

According to an upper level campaign insider if Bush fails to place in the top three in both Iowa and New Hampshire, his largest donors have let him know they will be moving on to greener pastures. Current Iowa polls show him having no chance of placing in the top three in Iowa which if his large campaign donors stick to their guns will end his campaign. According to ElectLeaders.com polling Jeb comes off as Entitled, Arrogant, Low Energy, Insider, with all of those obtaining over 40% in our poll.

Here is the latest poll we have done completed 01/13/2016 at 8 PM has him in 6th place trailing even Rand Paul who was not invited to the big kids table for the Fox News Debate. Hopefully this truly turns out the light on this poor campaign full of entitlement....

if Bush fails to place in the top three in both Iowa and New Hampshire...

Just in the top three? That seems to be a generous spread. Yet, Jeb will most probably miss that target.

If this is true... Rubio is their man...

Rubio is loving all this Cruz vs Trump distraction...

Be wise folks... If Rubio is the GOP nominee our country is over.

I’d rather have him stay in just to keep dividing the establishment.

Well, his donors may stop throwing their money away, but I doubt he'll quit the race until he's trounced in South Carolina.

I think he's trying to hold on, hoping he'll somehow be able to compete in the South.

The problem with that strategy is that if Trump wins Iowa and NH, he has an air of inevitability. That coupled with his charisma and large-and-growing supporter base... it's too late for Bush.

If Cruz and Trump split Iowa and NH, then the race is all about them. They'll suck up all the oxygen. Again... it's too late for Bush. He's simply too low in the polls to mount a credible comeback.

At this point, how can he possibly believe that the mad-as-hell Republican base is going to stop and think, "Hey, we should give serious thought to another Bush as the nominee!"
