Former Florida governor is spending more than twice as much as any other candidate, according to new data With a full year left until the 2016 presidential election it's still unclear who will emerge the winner. But when it comes to millions spent on TV ads, one candidate has already taken the top spot: Jeb Bush.

However, other than some gift baskets from local stations in Iowa and New Hampshire, the former Florida governor has little to show for it, with poll numbers stubbornly stuck in the single digits.

Bush and his supporters have so far spent an eye-popping $20 million in TV commercials during the 2016 presidential race - more than twice as much as any other candidate, according to ad-spending data from NBC partner SMG Delta. The bulk - $19.5 million - was spent by his Super PAC, Right to Rise.

Absolutely; evert time angry "Little Jebbie"tm, "Tippy Toes" incessant commercials appear on TV here in NH, I immediately hit the "mute" button and tell him to "shut up, and go away", or I immediately change the channel!

We can't stand listening to or watching angry "Little Jebbie"tm, "Tippy Toes" because he is a complete LOSER on par with Obamessiah and her heinousness Hildabeast.

The guy is wasting his time as well as millions of other people's money. His commercials are a complete turn off and feed my incentive to all the more vote for Donald TRUMP; Ted Cruz being the second, only other viable candidate that we will support, period!

I have seen his commercial many times. I usually change channels when it appears.

He comes across as a grating jerk with bad posture.

He is a very unattractive person.

Jeb has NO chance of winning anything.

Yup. And it's been the same commercial for months. All I can think is that Rove has written off his campaign, but is getting paid a percentage for every ad that's played.

Yeb has little to show period. The millions he spent just showed us that. But he did us a favor by blowing that money which could have gone to another Uniparty member. Thanks Yeb.
