Empty seat syndrome: Sparse crowds for Hillary in New Hampshire and Jeb in Nevada...

Call it empty seat syndrome.

While Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump continues to draw overflow crowds by the thousands this week, Democratic race leader Hillary Clinton and one-time GOP front-runner Jeb Bush have seen their recent crowds dwindle along with their poll numbers.

Bush, the one-time GOP front-runner who was deposed by Trump over the summer, drew only about 100 people to a recreation center in Summerlin, N.V., outside Las Vegas.

It was the former Florida governor's first appearance following Wednesday night's prime-time national GOP primary debate, which brought record-high ratings for CNN.

Also on Thursday, Clinton received a standing ovation at a Boys & Girls Club in Concord, N.H., but found herself speaking to scores of empty seats, especially in the back of the large gymnasium.

At times, it seemed there were more supporters behind Clinton on stage than attendees in the audience.

Poor Hillary! Poor Jeb!

Aye carumba!

[fwdude]

Did they really need a microphone?

If Hillary wants a crowd packed with her supporters, she needs to move her event to a local cemetery. Plus 2 is that she won't be putting any of these folks to sleep...

Hillary’s attendance at her appearances reminds me of the old joke about sparsely attended sports events:

They introduce the fans to the players to save time.

¡Yeb! should hang it up

We don’t want to be North Mexico

And there aren’t enough Mexicans to elect him, yet.......

[rightwingcrazy]

Consider her core constituency, though. Dead folks don’t need seats.

[Fiddlstix]

Looks like ¡Yeb! and sHillary should join forces!

[Berlin_Freeper]

The Hillary room looks more like a custodial closet.

[SaveFerris]

I think there are more staff and security than sheeple at each of those events.

Contrast this to an event this evening...a Friday night when High School Football is on.....that about 10 Republican candidates will be in Greenville, SC....you can't get a ticket! Not one to be had and folks are trying their best to get them!

PS.....for the Trump folks - Trump might not be at this event but he was here last month and folks were lined around the building to get in!
