PUNTA GORDA - Former Gov. Jeb Bush, whose national presidential campaign has dropped dramatically...

"I'm on the side of the people that want to rise up and I will wake up each day with joy in my heart," said Bush. "I will not be an angry candidate. I will work as hard as I can to put a fork in the whole darn thing on March 15."

Bush said he wasn't concerned with the criticism his campaign has received, saying there are 100 days until February and four months until the March 15 Florida primary.

"We have a long way to go," he said. "People don't know the whole Jeb story, but they will. We got a lot of resources and I'm going to campaign hard in early states and let them know that it's a record of accomplishments that is unmatched by anyone on that stage."...

"I'm going to campaign hard and I'm going to campaign to win," he said. "I feel really good about where we are."

The campaign has tried to adjust, cutting salaries and refocusing resources in early primary states...

"It's an indicator that the tide might be falling...a sinking ship," said Chris Ingram, a Republican Tampa-based political strategist.

Ingram said Bush has long-term sustainability, but needs to do something to "turn on the excitement."...in Florida kicking off his "Jeb Can Fix It" tour...

Bush acknowledged he's been getting a lot of advice... taking it with a grain of salt...

"The simple fact is you have to be who you are, and I know who I am. My compass points north. I'm comfortable in my own skin ...They're looking for a servant leader. They're not looking for a big personality on the stage."

On Friday night, about 100 people attended the rally

Of course you know who you are, Yeb. You are a Transnational Progressive. Now, will you just admit it to the rest of us and get into the Democrat primary so you can try to beat Hillary?

Hey Jeb! Denial is not just a river in Egypt!

How about if you have to pay back all those donors who are staying in there because of yer Daddy?

Good going Jebito. You go girl! You stick with it to the bitter end!

We, on the other hand, look forward to having more time to ridicule you and your pathetic excuse for a campaign.

Punta Gorda has a population a little over 16,000 people and they could only manage to attract a crowd of 100?

They must have been counting reporters and campaign staff too.

Knowing who you are does not mean that who you are is relevant to anything useful.

“I’m on the side of the people that want to rise up and I will wake up each day with joy in my heart,” said Bush.

`Oh I got joy, joy, joy, joy down in my heart.
Where?’

This is getting just too weird. It’s sounding like a Fearnet move, so Happy Halloweenie all!
