Jeb Bush has tried everything.
His campaign allies have blanketed the airwaves with almost $30 million in ads. Aiming to shake the "low-energy" tag and prove his toughness, Bush hit Donald Trump as a carnival barker unfit for the serious job of being President. He attacked Sen. Marco Rubio, suggesting his former protege was a dilettante in a hurry. He cut staff, hired a debate coach, and pledged that "Jeb Can Fix It."
Bush is now polling at 3% -- and dropping.
The 3% figure puts Bush in sixth place in the national GOP race, according to the CNN/ORC poll released Friday morning. It's the latest insult and disappointment for Bush, a son and brother of presidents, the conservative former two-term governor of Florida and the man who started the race as the unquestioned establishment favorite.
With two months left before the Iowa caucuses, Bush is saddled with the nagging questions: What happened? And is there anything the self-proclaimed "joyful tortoise" can do to turn things around?

Maybe he ought to come out against anti-Muslim rhetoric that could result in violence. That’ll bring up his numbers /s
He’ll stay in well into Florida, because there are so many people out there making money on his campaign, same with Carson and Rubio. They’re all sucking. Trump is the big league player here. All the rest are apprentices. This includes the second best candidate Cruz.
He’s got plenty of time, and his huge advantage over Trump, is that he doesn’t have a ceiling, so the sky is the limit for him, and all the others.
I hope it’s not a typo, and really 33 percent and climbing. Barbara will not be pleased with 3 percent.
Think he's already done that numerous times!
Note to the Bushes: 2 outta 3 ain’t bad
dont drop out jebbie...we need th ehumor.
Trump will need to get his people to the polls in Florida. The Florida GOP is notoriously corrupt so folks had better pay attention.
The GOPe stands in total shock at the fact that their boy is not being welcomed by conservative voters. After all, how could the robotic staunch Republican voters not follow their directives to put him into office?
This just can’t be! He is a member of the Bush dynasty so he is owed the position and allegiance by all Republican lemmings...and most importantly, he is the puppet of the GOPe.
What they don’t understand, thanks to the internet, is that the people now can get real, truthful and reliable news from other sources than the national propaganda 4th estate...the TV news, magazine, radio and paper news networks.
Consequently, the people have been awakened and have found out that their freedoms and liberties have been stolen by the Republican party due to neglect, self-enrichment, and downright dishonesty and deceit.
I think Barbara would have gotten better numbers than Jeb.
LOL, Fox even gave him free advertising last night on one of their news shows. He was unimpressive as usual but very upbeat about his chances of being the next resident. :)
>> Maybe he ought to come out against anti-Muslim rhetoric that could result in violence.
... or even propose bringing back the assault rifle ban. That’s a clear winner with the electorate.
I swear, this guy is so politically tone deaf, I wouldn’t put it past him.
I think he needs to campaign more in Spanish.
Pretty hard.....I can’t remember the last time I heard him speak English. :0)
Jeb doesn’t have the energy to get above 5%
He should be at the kiddie table for the next debate with that poofter Lindsey Graham and that pathetic loser Jim Gilmore.
Maybe Barbara should have kept her mouth shut about Sarah Palin.
He's in freefall again?
I hope he cries when he announces he is suspending his campaign.
