Jeb Bush's challenge in the first half of the year was daunting yet simple. To be considered a fundraising success, the Republican presidential candidate had to hit the magic number of $100 million, an ambitious goal set by some in his campaign. And he did.
As another fundraising period ends, what now constitutes success for Bush isn't as clear cut. No longer the front-runner in preference polls, Bush won't repeat as the champion at raising money in the GOP's 2016 field, topped in the past three months by retired surgeon Ben Carson and perhaps by Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, too.

Bush's finance team describes his fundraising in the past three months as "respectable" and "fine," while declining to provide the specifics on just how much they raised. That detail will come later this month in a report filed with federal regulators.

Bush aides say they also expect to be topped by Cruz, the Texas senator with unvarnished contempt for his own party's leadership and an enthusiastic tea party following.

Bush has an unvarnished contempt for conservative voters.
Bush has reached his ceiling— can not get beyond 10 percent...
If these donors want to give money to someone who will never win the presidency, they should just send it to me and end
the suspense.
All the low-polling candidates are “in it for the long haul”, but so are all the high-polling candidates...
Can you believe that some one could be this stupid?
And there are people that really want him to run our Country....amazing how far they have their heads up their butts!!!!
If you want to lose the general election, vote for Jeb. How’s that for a “mantra”?
If they want to waste it why not "waste it" our way?
That is the Karl Rove technique to making the big bucks.
“Bush donors embrace new mantra: He’s built to last”
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
How about: “He’s Built FOR Last”
FIFY RINO’s
I know the right to rise has over $100 million or did but they are a 501.3c and not supposed to coordinate.
The doctor MUST have dropped that effin’ pinhead ON his head when he was born.
He’s built to FINISH last. There, now it’s right.
Dems love that.
That’s why they will do their best to install Bush as the R nominee.
The unforecast Trump eruption appears to have derailed their plans, at least currently.
This is Not Your Father’s Oldsmobile ............
Cruz or lose!
“Built to Last” ... so was the Edsel.
Built to be last.
¡Yeb!’s challenge is simple, get American citizens to vote to abandon the rule of law and give up their country to fraudulently documented foreigners.
