Jeb Bush told NBC News' Chuck Todd on Sunday that his campaign will continue no matter how he finishes in New Hampshire, the state where he has committed most of his time and campaign resources.

"We'll beat expectations. And we'll be in South Carolina. And I'm excited by that," Bush said on "Meet The Press." "In fact, of the governors at least, I'm the only one that has a national campaign."

Jeb Bush Promises to 'Beat Expectations' in New Hampshire

Instead of coming in tenth place in a nine candidate race, Jebbie is now expected to move up to last place.

Yeah because he’s in the “sweet spot” on abortion.

“Jeb Bush Promises to ‘Beat Expectations’ in New Hampshire”

I thought Expectations had dropped out, but if he’s still in the race - running 10th or 11th in the polls - maybe Jeb can beat him. I guess we’ll see.

Shouldn’t be hard to beat expectations. We aren’t expecting much.

Then they might as well make it 1st because 2nd isn't any more believable.

Jeb is counting on NH to save his bacon like it did for Poppy in ‘88. To his credit, he did fairly well last night with the eminent domain issue. I suppose that he thought his ‘sweet spot’ approach to aborting children on account of their father’s crimes will endear him with NH moderates, but he (and Christie) burned their bridges with pro-lifers in a big way. Is it possible that he could take 2nd or 3rd in NH? Sure, but even if he does, his campaign is toast.

All I could see when he was giving his pro life schpiel was Terri Schiavo.

Yeah well I expect he will lose by 100+ votes but I bet he beats my expectations and loses by at 1,000+

Anyone who stays in to take votes from a viable candidate is an enemy, as far as I am concerned.

iYeb!, Christie, Kasuck and Rubio are all going for the same voters. None of them are viable.

Me too. Yet nobody is asking him about Terri Schiavo and the horrific way she was killed.

Jeb is taking votes from Rubio. Let him stay awhile.
