The super-PAC supporting Jeb Bush’s presidential bid will spend $10 million on television advertisements in the first three primary states, the group’s first major ad buy with its gigantic war chest. Super-PAC officials told The Associated Press that the ads in Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina will run from September through the remainder of the calendar year. Iowa kicks off the presidential nominating season on Feb. 1, with the other states following close behind.

Not sure if ads overall have started already. If the political ad agency can successfully put lipstick on a pig they should be the focus of a modern day "Mad Men" series.

When it was launched, New Coke had one of the most expensive ad campaigns ever.

The agencies are just looking to spend the money and pay for their second homes before Bush is officially done.

Doesn’t matter how much money people throw at him, he isn’t going to win because:

Right to Rise has already spent $10 million on salaries and overhead. So they only have $80 million left. And their fundraising has collapsed so there is very little money coming in now.

Absolutely NONE of which can possibly persuade me to vote for him.

The ad agency making the TV buy is the big winner. They get 15% off the top for placing the TV ad buy. Thats 1.5 million for the ad buy plus whatever they charge Bush III to produce the ads.

Well I’m sure they’ll find a way to spend the $80 million before it’s over.

If he spends a lot of dough attacking Trump or other contenders that proves he’s in it to be the designated GOPe loser to hitlery. When a primary candidate attacks another candidate, he/she has more difficulty winning over voters supporting sinking candidates.

Does the GOPe really believe that Republican voters are as easily swayed by BS and as brain dead as Dims?

Hitlery and jebbush have the same donors.
