This is pretty remarkable. Sources close to the Bush campaign are beginning to leak about a call last night. I’m told the Bush team is out of money. Pay for campaign staff will end on Saturday. The campaign is all but over.

Additionally, after having hundreds of millions of dollars on hand, the Bush Super PAC has less than $15 million from what I am being told.

What a waste.

The really good news: Every dollar wasted on Jeb, is a dollar less that the GOPe have to oppose Trump or Cruz.

Bingo! The MSM feasts on political campaigns. They are always touting Canada’s method of doing things, so let’s adopt their 90 day campaigns. Certainly, we are as smart as the Canadians and don’t need more time to make up our minds. The greedy media moguls and the overpaid airhead anchors hogging the airways would really hate that.

Sounds like a winner!

It's been thirty years since I went to law school, and being a full time social studies teacher for the last 26 years, I'm a little rusty. But I did a fast search and got THIS which I still doubt meets the requirements needed since there seems to be a contract lacking unless you claim that winning an election falls under the quasi contract doctrine. And what would be the remedy? Specific Performance? If you lost the election there can be no specific performance. What would be the claim position? Promissory estoppel? How are the donors financially harmed or damaged based on the sums donated and the specific outcome of the election? Do you propose to return the funding to each and every donor to a status quo ante position? How do you determine the level of damages to each donor and how should the monetary awards be prioritized? Folks, gimme a break.

Here it ends for me. Like my pal Forrest said: I'm getting pretty tired. I think I'll stop now." Or words to that effect.

I agree with your withdrawal as it is usually a waste of time to debate complicated issues in a forum like this. There is usually not enough time or writing space when one discusses a legal issue.p>

No, they will not have that option.
The GOP itself is being sidelined.
They will be able to hitch along or fall behind
