Right to Rise, the pro-Jeb Bush super PAC that raised a record-shattering sum, is canceling a wave of planned television advertising.

The move, confirmed by two media tracking sources, follows Bush exiting the Republican primary Saturday night after a drubbing in South Carolina.

The group canceled television buys in Georgia, Idaho, Michigan, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Texas and Virginia.

A testimonial to the fact obscene spending doesn’t buy you the nomination, let alone the White House.

They could have spent more - and it would have been futile.

Fox News tried their best to prop up Jeb in order to keep the Right To Rise advertising dollars flowing into their bank account as long as possible.

HOLY HEDGE FUND! Jeb-You/re-Next spent over $125 million on his failed campaign? The GOPe must be choking on the chilled Cristal, Oestra caviar, and stuffed lobster in the country club Grill Room.

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

IMHO, the ignominious collapse of Jeb-You/re-Next drove a huge stake into the heart of the establishment GOPe. Forget erectile dysfunction. The fallout of being politically castrated is devastating to a powermonger.

The GOPe/s de-b***ing began when candidate Jeb said he didn't need the Republican base .... and proceeded to carry on, business as usual, as his numbers sunk into oblivion.

Jeb telling a key bloc of Republican voters to take a hike is the consequence of the country club GOPe demeaning and dismissing conservatives as not being worthy of their elite party.

The entitled Jeb-You/re-Next took it as Gospel when he heard the Bush elders condescending attitude towards conservatives....people to whom the aristocratic Bush/s feel socially superior.

But the GOPe should know this: they will get no pity from conservatives for their woes......and we aim to stick their noses in the mess they made every frickin chance we get.

This would only have been news if they had kept running ads.

It reminds me of a funny old SNL skit where a winning candidate continued to run ads hounding his defeated opponent.

How did these political experts miss Giuliani's fifty million dollar fiasco in 2008? That should have been their first clue.

But no, they always double down.
