“Trump has spent $216,000.”

I’ll bet he’s spent more than that flying his planes. Maybe he’d be flying around anyway so these costs aren’t considered campaign costs.

He might get to 4% if he stands on his tippy toes.

Already tried it. Didn't work.

Yeah, But Jeb is losing from a position of strength.
People aren’t voting for him as an act of love.

An example of the catastrophic thinking behind too big to fail

It's strictly a race between Trump and Cruz.

Together they still have less than 50%. A lot depends on where Jeb and the other Mighty Midget's supporters go when they drop out. 1% here, 1% there, eventually it adds up.

Judging by his campaign platform, he could switch over to democrat and probably pick up a few points.

He is still convinced they can fix it the way it's always fixed.

I've seen stranger things happen. I can't say I'd be shocked to see him as the nominee.

He was only ever “top tier” in the imaginations of the media/political establishment.

They will never understand the extent to which Bush’s nonfeasance in the Terri Schiavo case doomed his campaign.

With a personality of a dishrag, a condescending, petulant attitude, and unpopular ideas, Bush shouldn’t reach for the presidency. He should start a reality show called moping with the stars.

I don’t think Jeb would be in the lead under any circumstance.

He is the worst candidate I have ever seen. He is the most bumblimg, stumbling, rambling, head shaking, hunch back, boring as friggin’ Hell campaigner I have ever seen.

And I swear, anyone stupid enough to think that running around campaigning in Spanish was going to earn even a single vote is just plain retarded.

See that small number for Trump?

He doesn’t need a $1million commercial. He can simply make a statement like ‘no muslims’ and look at all the publicity it has gotten him. That didn’t cost him a dime.

Bush: $32.5 million

Maybe Yeb is qualified to be President. It usually takes the federal government to waste that much money.

He really does not understand why.

Hey Jeb, here's a clue: Bush is a four letter word.............
