Jeb Bush is entering a critical phase of his Republican presidential campaign, with top donors warning that the former Florida governor needs to demonstrate growth in the polls over the next month or face serious defections among supporters.

BREAK I hope. We don’t need any more liberal Bushes pretending to be slightly less socialistic than the democrats.
It’s hard to sell cancer.......
“..... demonstrate growth in the polls over the next month or face serious defections among supporters.”.......
“Rats”, jumping ship as it sinks to the bottom.
Jeb Bush’s current pack of retread loser election consultants and paid campaign ghouls WILL NOT LET HIM quit until all of his money has been exhausted. That’s just a plain simple fact of electioneering.
I like the smell of a burning Bush in the morning.
It would be different if they could actually read the pulse of discontent. But that isn’t in their repertoire because it does not fit the mold of pandering to the big money donors who do not represent the majority of real voters.
Instead of getting out into real America and seeing what the real issues are, they sit around and talk with each other, read liberal rags and blogs and watch network TV and media assuming that’s America. It isn’t, and they are in for a very rude awakening that will likely embalm their tired ideas and spiel of what it takes to win an election.
I wish this were true, but Yeb is said to still have a boat load of money on hand, money he could use to coast his 7% along for quite a while if he chooses.
I won’t breath easy until both the Beast and Arbusto have dropped off the leader board completely.
I think they know more than you are giving them credit for. They know there is absolutely no way that Bush can win the general election. But their goal is not winning. Their first goal is personal wealth. Second is controlling the R establishment. Third is smacking down conservatives.
The long game is just what the vampire campaign consultants would advocate as long as the bank statements still show a balance. That will be their spin to Bush and his stupid donors until Bush tangibly fails.
I guess I agree with you on the deception thing. Their actions and advice are really a ruse that hides their true intent. But I still think they are deluding themselves in their thinking they and their big money donors, establishment politicians et al could continue in this. In this regard, they have no idea of the “terrible resolve” [to reuse a famous phrase] they have filled the sleeping giant with.
Yep
the compost has to use ink to take up space where there are no ads
Juuuust enough support to keep him twisting in the wind, but still alive.
Slowly, slowly, slowly twisting...................
What. A. Dork.
Rubio is waiting in the wings to assume the mantle of the eGOP candidate once Yeb! takes the dive.
Truer words were never spoken.
The people backing him are quickly coming to a point where they will opt to shift their money to Rubio, Fiorina, or some other nominally RINO candidate whom they feel can actually win.
Jeb has maybe 60-90 more days in single digits IMHO. And I don’t see how he gets beyond that as this would require him to backtrack on just about every position he’s taken.
The look on his face both before and during tippy-toes, and the tippy-toes itself shows he never grew up mentally.
