This look at Jeb Bush's chances and path to win the Republican presidential nomination is part of a series here on The Fix looking at all the top candidates.
Where does he stand in the polls?
The former Florida governor began the race as the odds-on Republican front-runner, and the early polling backed that up. He led most every national poll conducted in late 2014 and traded leads with Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, among others, early in 2015.
Then, the race actually began. Bush launched his campaign in mid-June, and by mid-July began a steady decline. While he topped out at around 17 percent, most national polls now have him stuck in the back of the pack, around 5 percent.
The picture is about the same in Iowa. In New Hampshire, he does slightly better, coming in around 10 percent with a bunch of other candidates essentially tied for second place. That still leaves Bush in a jumbled race of non-Trumps, but it does appear to be his best hope for a state to win.
How has he performed?
Bush's campaign has been the most underwhelming of the entire race.

I nominate him for dog doodie picker upper.
Bush vs. Sanders! Just read a Trump/Cruz thread. You’ll see why.
The question is, should that happen, will the Trump supporters vote for him? LOL
LOL, poor jebbie. He can’t even show his face during former-presidential retreats... err, I mean the Bush family barbecues.
Rove and Priebus’s plan to make their brokered conention scheme work is to declare Cruz ineligible at the convention and appropriate his delegates and give them to Jeb.
CAREER POLITICIANS.
By the way, will Trump be deporting the darker Boosh? You know, he is a lightweight Mexican probably born in Hooarez.
What do you have against striay dogs?
No
I'm sorry, but a guy who struggles to get 5% in the polls is hardly a "top candidate."
Will Jeb Bush win the Republican nomination? No!
Awesome gif!
As much as I hate to say it I think he does stand a good chance that is why several times he has stated he will be. They have plans on taking out the 3 front runners. They will do major hit pieces on all of them that they have been saving for this time and Jeb knows it. Maybe wrong but who would look so stoooopid and stick around unless there was something in the works.
Good .gif :) BTTT
In his dreams.
George P. was born in Houston, TX, USA.
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA , OH HA HA HA HHA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA
“George P. was born in Houston, TX, USA.”
Remember, facts don’t matter to Trump.
I will not vote for that ticket. I believe that if you wish to write in a candidate, you must ask for a paper ballet. This is something we need to find out how to do for each state, just in case!
Where was I..?? What planet was that on...??
Space ships full of aliens from other planets showing up to vote for Scully and Mulder make them more likely to win the GOP nomination than Jeb.
