Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush and Florida Senator Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) share a complicated political history, with Rubio a one-time protege of Bush the younger. In the 2016 presidential race they share another distinction as the two candidates most dominating the airwaves with paid political ads.
Jeb Bush has spent a massive $35 million on paid advertising so far this campaign, with $17 million spent in New Hampshire and $9 million devoted to Iowa. The money has come from both his individual campaign and the Right to Rise super pac allied with his candidacy.
In spite of this ad buy, Bush earns just four percent support nationally in the RealClearPolitics average of polls. In New Hampshire, where his ads dominate the airwaves, Bush is in 5th place with just seven percent of the vote. Bush is also 5th in Iowa, with just 5.6 percent support. In a recent Des Moines Register poll, however, a strong majority of Republican voters have an unfavorable view of Bush.
The stunning failure of Bush's ad spending to reverse his poll slide, though, obscures the fact that other candidates have spent large sums on advertising to little effect.

Good let hope they both continue getting such a pathetic return on their dollars.
I have not spent a dime on my Presidential campaign.....and I am only 3 points behind Jeb. ;-P
:-O
Now that right there was funny!
A RINO and his money are soon parted
Here in Minnesota, GOPe Bush and Rubio ads are running often
Haven’t seen a single ad from either candidate, but then again, I saw maybe one or two Romney ads when he was pretending to run for president. I guess we Western PA voters don’t count.
That was a very enlightening article, albeit depressing. The GOP is an enterprise only looking out for number 1.
[singing] do you get the message, do you get the message...
And money well wasted, money down the rabit hole.
Can I be your running mate?
Too funny!!!!!
I like your tag line too!
Jeb is dramatically energized after this last debate, he’s been told he done very well, so he going to redesign his campaign once again to orchestrate a spectacular comeback, this time everyone will be astounded at how hughly series he is.
Great news.
That means that they will have less ad money to lie about Trump and Cruz, next year.
