From the NYTimes:
It is a portrait of deep frustration. Jeb Bush’s campaign has 10 paid staff members in Iowa, it has made 70,380 phone calls to state Republicans and it has collected 5,000 email addresses. For all that, it has recruited just four volunteers statewide and has identified only 1,260 supporters…
On Saturday, both [Bush and Rubio] will appear with eight other Republican candidates at a forum in Des Moines. Iowa, the state with the first nominating contest, has been rocky terrain for Mr. Bush because of its large evangelical bloc and hostility to mainstream politicians…
The ghost of Teri Schiavo has zero fvcks to spare for you, Gov. Bush.
Jeb: “I knew this would be a long journey, but to suggest that the campaign is terminal, come on. That’s pretty funny.”
