Jeb Bush on Friday ordered across-the-board pay cuts to his struggling presidential campaign and warned staff that job functions would change.
On a Friday conference call, top officials said resources would shift heavily to ballot access and voter contact.
One person on the Friday morning staff call said they were left with the impression that "very few people will be left in Miami."
Danny Diaz led the call. Sally Bradshaw also spoke. So did general counsel Megan Sowards.
Although campaign officials insisted they're still in strong shape, the moves combined with Bush's stagnant poll numbers, despite millions having been spent by his Right to Rise super PAC on television ads over the last month suggest otherwise.
According to donors, some of whom called for Bush to rein in its spending, the campaign's assurances that its organizational and financial advantages had worn thin; and the third quarter FEC report, filed last Thursday, gave further definition to their growing concerns about the state of the campaign.
These donors are not finding these explanations by the Bush team believable," said one bundler, speaking on the condition of anonymity. "Theres a lot of frustration that a lot of moneys been spent and it hasnt moved anything."

But Jeb what happened to all those people in your state that you did favors for? They told you ‘no’ when you asked them for money? Oh my, imagine that....and you didn’t know that’s how this game is played?????
Well, well,well....
Reducing payroll costs 40% this week.
Cutting travel costs by 20%
Cutting 45% from non-media/voter contact from original June planning budget.
Goal is "putting as much money as possible into voter contact, and winning primaries and caucuses."

There’s always Lehman brothers, joyful tortoise/
Whassa matta Jebbie baby? Did Daaady’s friends cut you off ?
Get the butter and jelly out because Jeb is toast!!!
The catalysts that ended the Bush dynasty really started back with Bush#1. It was clear he is a one-worlder. But Bush#2 drove a steak in it when the Repub voters gave him TWO TERMS AND BOTH HOUSES with full control and he DID NOTHING to fight the Rats. He could have put them out of business but again, he DID NOTHING. No fight. Pure establishment.
Then of course, Jeb with his very PRO-MEXICAN and open border stance put the cherry on top of it all and carried forward the establishment banner and that ended it. He will be out soon, IMHO.
Of course there is a lot more to it but America is fed up with do-nothing, no-fight repubs. The country cannot take it any more.
Yeah...like unemployment.
I am done with the Bushes and I am done with the Clintons. ENOUGH!
If they are even cancelling fundraiser, then Jebbie is in deep, deep trouble.
Wouldn’t be surprised to see him drop out by Thanksgiving.
Oh my.
But I thought Bush had $120 million or more.
Your picture describes a lot better what is happening to Bush than a
crack in the dam.
Tippy Toes Bush’s plan is lose the primary but win the general is all going according to plan.
He might as well give up.
I don’t know Jeb maybe it’s time to ask the criminal illegal alien invaders... Where’s The LOVE!
Bush is at his ceiling of about 10 percent..
