HIALEAH, Fla. - Jeb Bush and his supporters still have a pile of money to spend - remnants of $100 million raised when he seemed early this year to be a sure bet. They have an expansive ground operation in New Hampshire. And allies have just began a new ad campaign in Iowa.
But nothing they have tried so far has lifted Mr. Bush's terrible poll numbers. And with just four weeks remaining until voting begins, Mr. Bush needs to do something to save his candidacy.
It may be too late: Other campaigns appear to have counted him out altogether. But, in extensive interviews over the past week, aides and key allies to Mr. Bush described a long-shot plan to pull off what seems all but impossible - winning the Republican nomination for president. The plan has six elements:

Avoid Embarrassment in Iowa
Win New Hampshire - or at Least Come in the Top 3
Woo Senator Lindsey Graham
The Big Brother, and the Bush Alumni Network
The Advertising Blitz
Sounds like Bush and Rove ... want the money again.
They must be joking. Bush is dead as a door nail. Trump killed him off two weeks after announcing. His whole presentation is weak and uninspired. The more he is exposed the worse his numbers seem to get. He reminds me of the guy at our local grocery store who retrieves the shopping carts.

That is sad...
"....and now for something completely different....a man with a tape recorder up his nose."

Dukakis moment?
Truly, truly pathetic. The Whig party just won’t die...
Jeb Bush and his supporters still have a pile of money to spend
He has supporters? ... Who other than his wife, children, and Poppy?
Yebs illegals come here ‘for love’ so maybe he can buy them enough votes for him? Nah-—adios amigo Yeb Booooosh.
And what’s worse that they don’t realize, between Trump causing these elitist sycophants to reveal themselves, they have not just ended their chances in this election but for all elections going forward...they have destroyed themselves at last.
Utterly pathetic. What a child.
I don’t think even HE is serious any more
