Rubio's campaign is getting twice the ads for half the price of Bush's super PAC, undercutting his rival's cash advantage.

At KTIV in Sioux City, Rubio's campaign is paying $625 for 30 seconds on the 10 p.m. news on December 30. Bush's super PAC is paying $3,700 - a roughly 500 percent markup. The next morning, Rubio has two more 30-second ads during "Today" for $165 each. The rate for a single 30-second spot for Right to Rise is $650. In other words, Rubio is getting twice the airtime for half the price.
Bush has long predicted that his television advertising advantage would lift his candidacy. "I'm gonna do something really novel," he said last month in Iowa. "It's called advertising." So far, though, Right to Rise has spent more on television ads than any of his competitors – more than $17 million to date - only to see Bush flatline in the polls both nationally and in early states.
Inside the Bush operation, there is already some quiet grumbling about why Right to Rise, run by longtime Bush operative Mike Murphy, sat idle on its tens of millions during the summer - a time that saw Bush slip, Donald Trump surge, and New Hampshire rivals John Kasich and Chris Christie own that state's airwaves.

Fleecing GOP donors is my middle name!
Two losers battling to come in third or forth.
The Cheap Labor Express has money to burn
Jeb reminds me of those big inflatable gorillas in front of dodgy car dealerships - after a storm. Deflated, sunken, slumped over... A sad travesty of asinine bombast.
Yeb who?
He’s so dumb that he is being ripped off by his own campaign. Plus his ads are terrible.
Haha! I love that imagery.
Who is Jeb even trying to appeal to anymore? I don’t even know.
Mike Murphy is getting twice the price for half the ads. Mission accomplished. Murphy is doing to GOPe donors what Bernie Madoff did to the lefties.
It seemed to me in his latest ad, that Bush wasn’t telling us about himself so much as he was yelling at us.
I’ve seen a couple of his ads now and you’re right....they are terrible.
