The super PAC backing Jeb Bush's Republican presidential campaign is planning to increase its ad buy in South Carolina ahead of the Feb. 20 primary.
Right to Rise USA is pouring another $1.7 million into the Palmetto State in the next 10 days on top of the more than $10 million the group has already spent in the state, according to people familiar with the plans. The money will be spent primarily on television, radio and digital advertising.
The cash infusion is coming as the PAC is postponing the start of ad buys in seven states holding contests in March.
The group previously announced plans to air ads in Virginia, Georgia, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Texas, Michigan and Idaho. Those ad campaigns will start closer to March 1, freeing up some money to be spent in South Carolina sooner, said the people familiar with the plans, who asked for anonymity to speak frankly about campaign strategy.

Mike Murphy is down to his last $2 million after SC. Donors are saying NO MAS.
Maybe this is a dumb question, but has anyone seen a Trump ad?
Murphy will still collect his fat political consultant’s fee.
He’ll get that regardless of the fate of the Jeb campaign.
Trump is a brand. Every one knows him.
I think he spent only a few million dollars in NH and the rest of it was free media.
So far he hasn’t needed to spend a lot of money to remain in the race.
Its been an astute strategy for him.
Maybe this is a dumb question, but has anyone NOT seen a Trump ad?
Fixed it.
Of course, I'm referring to the endless NEWS LOOP(s)on Trump, for that day's snooze (a.k.a.,news.)
Exactly. And here in Oregon, the Bush and Rubio ads are non-stop, not to mention annoying!
It is not going to buy Jeb a victory, but it is going to result in the political destruction of Rubio.
Why Rubio was even considered to be a serious candidate in this race is beyond me. Good riddance to him!
And--actually, that was the point of my question. :)
Has Mike Murphy ever won anything?
It is 5 o’clock Jeb, punch out and go home.
That's why when I'm being sarcastic while writing I always try to remember the "/s," or the "rolling my eyes"
Still wasting other people’s money.
Go home Jeb, you’re drunk
The Lindsey Graham train is moving on!
