The most important day in Jeb Bush's presidential campaign is Feb. 9.
That's when New Hampshire residents vote and Bush's precarious campaign finally fizzles out or when he resurfaces as a leading candidate after months of teetering on the brink of irrelevance.
Even more than Iowa's caucuses in just over a week, the Granite State primary should provide clarity to a contest that has defied prediction and long-held assumptions about presidential politics.
"It's the first real inflection point," said Al Cardenas, a top Republican fundraiser and Bush supporter from Miami. "For some people, it's the definitive last stand. For some people it may be a course alteration."
For others, out of money and momentum, it's sure to be the end.
Anything but a strong showing for Bush will vastly increase calls for him to quit. He already faces pressure to bow out rather than attack fellow mainstream conservatives seen as stronger candidates than he has proven to be.
But Bush is in a unique position.
After strengthening his standing in the earliest voting states, he has a more credible path to the nomination than he has had for months.

Jeb’s prospects are brightening???
Yup,they’re brightening.He’s up to 3% in Iowa and 3.5% in New Hampshire.
Spoiler alert: He’s been asked to quit by some about 30 seconds after he declared.
Hope he and all the RINOs stay in as long as possible. Each can have their very own 3 to 9 percent of each primary.
It's a relative thing.
Yeb will not be making a comeback anytime soon.
He will be finished after NH.
Actually he is already finished, but will be pronounced politically
dead after NH.
Oh yeah right. Bwahahahaha. Not that it’s anymore official than any other poll but I believe Jeb didn’t even register 1% on Drudges poll yesterday.
Ya know, he might be right about ole Jeb!s prospects brightening up a bit .
Right before the big blastwave comes, there is a very bright flash from every nuclear bomb explosion .....
Jeb? doesn’t have enough energy left to quit.
Maybe he’ll stay long enough to get at the kiddie table. Might as well. ;)
Love that pic.
My favorite pic is that goofy, cross eyed pic of Yeb.
Yes, as in Mom.
Jeb’s prospects are brightening???
**************************
First thought when I saw the headline, Yeb!’s prospects have been doing nothing but going down.
Jeb’s prospects are brightening because he sold more guacabowls today. That’ll lift anyone’s spirits.
That picture busts me up everytime I see it.
