PORTSMOUTH, N.H. – His campaign in difficult straits after disappointing showings on the stump and the debate stage, former Florida governor Jeb Bush insisted Thursday that he has the skills and the staying power to withstand a downturn.

"We have the most money, we have the greatest organization," Bush told reporters,

"...now if we could come up with a candidate, we'd be golden."

Yeb is 90% financed by big money donors and PACs.

Just the opposite of Trump.

Sure... all of that matters when no one is going to vote for you?

Money can buy you many things... popularity ain’t one of them.

Jeb, the Donald has spent pocket change and has more digits of support.
Money & organization doesn’t matter if the voters aren’t interested.

If it is real....I am surprised those boots don’t have a L and a R that way he knows what foot to put them on.

Granted Jeb has the money. Granted Jeb has an organization. What he DOES NOT have is an electorate willing to vote him in as President. His blind spot is his total failure to realize that no voter wants him.
