Remember when Jeb Bush was on top of the polls? Or Scott Walker? Both have now fallen to the point where they are fighting for table scraps, tied for fourth place in New Hampshire. Bush has 7%, while Trump has 35%. A new national poll is no better for Bush, showing Trump with a 30-point lead (40% to 10%) over Bush. And now Bush is apparently having trouble raising money and, incredibly, paying staffers:
A prominent Florida donor backing Bush said the former Sunshine State governor and his supporting super PAC are having to work even harder to keep up the pace, as hard-money contributions have been harder to come by in recent weeks.
“The debate performance scared a few people,” said Brian Ballard, a Tallahassee lobbyist backing Bush.
When Trump says repeatedly that Bush is too "low-energy" to be president, he may have a point.
“He seems a little frustrated with the Trump thing,” the donor said.

Anyone supporting Jeb, should have their water rations
cut — until they die of thirst, like Terri Schiavo.
ROFL
I will do a jig the day Bush drops out of the race.
We can all thank Trump for this! (even if we support others)
STOP! Hammer Time! :-D
Actually, no. Am I missing something here? I've been tracking polls for more than two months and cannot remember a time when Bush led anything---state, national, "good poll," "bad poll." When did he lead?
Trump has consistently been in the lead in almost every poll (he dropped to second in IA for a minute), state or local.
The Cheap Labor Express will shift their funding to someone they see as more viable. Look for Rubberio and Kasich to get more attention.
¡Yeb! is failing miserably to convince us we have no choice but to keep allowing the colonization of our country.
No.
The ^AMERICAN WAY^ is to cut staff, not their compensation!
Some of Mike Murphy’s Right to Rise donors are now asking Tokyo Rove to save Bush’s campaign. This is too funny!
Not only is Trump sucking all of the oxygen out of the room he is also sucking all of the money out of the consulting class.
When you have to cut salaries you are not getting message, it’s past time to give it up, you are not wanted, you have already proven a fool and his money are soon parted.
Too many branches on this campaign tree are hanging low and sucking the energy the strong branches need, time cut those branches loose.
CRUZ 2016... he is a good steward of the money given, he is spending money wisely every dollar spent is returning two dollars back, when the weak, sick, lame, lazy and tired limbs are cut off his return would increase ten fold.
I will do a jig the day Bush drops out of the race.

Which jig (by the way, that’s racist) will be jiggery, when Bush drops out or when Hillary is indicted?
Right To Rise is frozen. They don’t have any new money coming in and they still have overhead and salaries that they have to keep paying. Mike Murphy fails yet again.
Funny thing is:
Bush is blaming Trump.
Right to Rise is blaming Bush Campaign.
Bush Campaign is blaming Right to Rise.
Mike Murphy is blaming Sally Bradshaw.
Sally Bradshaw is blaming Mike Murphy.
Right to Rise Donors are blaming Mike Murphy.
No one is blaming Jeb Bush!
Isn’t it too bad that all those élites that made donations to BOTH hitlery and jebbush will probably see their investments go to waste.

Jebbie is just an organ grinder’s monkey and the organ grinders don’t like his dance.
