Jeb Bush Campaign Broke; To Stop Paying Staff On Saturday

Red State ^ | 2/18/16 | streiff

[jimbo123]

Erick Erickson is reporting at The Resurgent that the Bush campaign is broke.

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.

The Bush campaign is denying the rumor but it is coming from too many places take the denials seriously.

41=GHW Bush

43=GW Bush

Jeb=4-saken.

[Marie]

Yup. I don’t believe it.

Although I do believe that Yeb! is about done, they wouldn’t let it out right before the SC primary.

Pretty sure that this is a made up ‘leak’.

[laplata]

I thought they had enough cash to make it to the convention so that the RNC could hand the nomination to him if it was brokered.

That’s what I thought, too.

[JediJones]

Let's not count out Noelle yet.

Noelle Bush, daughter of Florida Governor Jeb Bush, was arrested by Tallahassee police in January 2002

[E. Pluribus Unum]

At last!An end to the Bush dynasty.

Not to worry.

Jethro will pop up again when the GOPe hijacks the convention for their little brokerage shindig.

[Farmer Dean]

Only 15 million left.Will Jeb convert this money into his personal retirement fund?

[JediJones]

You misunderstood. They have enough cash to drive to the convention.

[LongWayHome]

P. has quite a criminal history. he stalked a girl & kicked in her bedroom window in an attempt to attack her....that might help derail him.

[laplata]

LOL

[Oldexpat]

I will be far happier when Hillary quits the race in handcuffs. I will be even more over joyed when Chelsea is in cuffs along with slick Willie.

[Farmer Dean]

She looks strung-out 14 years ago.Wonder what she looks like today.

[proust]

more Cruz dirty tricks?

2015-11-05 : Free Republic's Patton@Bastogne's Bold Political Predictions


(1) Yeb Bush will make a good political campaign decision "intelligently" REFUSE to exit the 2016 GOP Presidential Race until he is DEFEATED in the 2016 March 15 Florida Primary.

Yeb Bush's political "ace in the hole" is the hopelessly corrupt Florida Republican Party ... the ones who redistricted the great Allen West out-of-office.


(2) Meanwhile ... Dr. Ben Carson will be polling "single digits" by Christmas 2015 ... at which point he'll endorse (suprise, surprise) Yeb Bush ...


4) Ted Cruz SHOCKS the "Washington Establishment Cartel" with a three-percent Florida victory over Donald Trump ...


===================================


Tonight (Thursday, 2015-11-05) it was revealed that Dr. Ben Carson supports Transgendered Bathrooms (political suicide for his Evangelical Christian base) ...

... and Dr. Ben Carson has "lied" about the names of guys he supposedly beat-up in high school

... which, when combined with the "ridiculous" Pyramid Theory statements, is beginning to make Herman Cain (2012) and John Edwards (2008) look like Einstein and Gen. George Patton Jr.


===================================


"Anything" can happen in a "New York Minute" in American politics.

Just ask Machiavelli, Abraham Lincoln, JFK, Bobby Kennedy, Vince Foster, Gary Hart, Buddy Holly, U.S. Senators Hale Boggs, Ted Stevens, and Paul Wellstone, Herman Cain ...

and Napoleon at Waterloo (who was winning the battle, and Wellington admitting DEFEAT, as late as 5:00 PM in the afternoon).


===================================


Ninety-eight (98) GOP Convention delegates are at stake in Florida's "mas mucho rigged" state Presidential Primary (Winner take All).

That makes it more convenient for Yeb's GOPe Chamber of Commerce Political Whores (aka the Florida Republican Party) to hand Yeb 98 convention delegates on a silver platter.

Yeb Bush has absolutely NOTHING to lose by staying in the presidential race (anything can happen).

Is it a longshot ? Absolutely.

Has Karl Rove already planned for this scenario ? Absolutely.

Will Dr. Ben Carson endorse Yeb Bush when the good doctor is "finished" ? Absolutely.

As a romantic interest once told me ... "It's All About the Money" ... perfectly applicable to Yeb Bush, Ben Carson, and Karl Rove.

[SkyDancer]

He thought he was riding high.

[dp0622]

Is this the death blow or should I wait before taking the wife to PortoBello’s?

[JediJones]

I forgot to add, they can afford to drive to the convention as long as gas stays under $2.

[jimbo123]

This is from Erick Erickson so I wouldn’t celebrate just yet.

But based on FEC reports, Jeb has to be close to broke or has just enough cash to make it to Nevada. But definitely not enough cash on hand to be able to make it to Super Tuesday unless he has been lending money to his own campaign.

[jacquej]

Can anyone fill me in on why Jeb married Columba in the first place.

Did he marry her before he went to college, when he went to Mexico after finishing prep school?

Something has always bothered me about that,since it seems so our of character for an old-school Wasp New England aristocratic family. To me it suggests some emotional instability resulting in mindless rebellion against the WASP country club system.

I would love to know more details about his years between 18 and 28.

[georgiarat]

He said he did not need the help from the conservative base. We sure did our part in not giving it to him!

4) Ted Cruz SHOCKS the “Washington Establishment Cartel” with a three-percent Florida victory over Donald Trump

---

That’s not gonna happen, if things hold up the way they have been. Trump is annihilating Cruz in Florida. And we’re winner take all for 99 delegates.

You’re right about the establishment getting a shock, thought. :)
