It makes sense, sadly, and I don't see Jeb getting 3rd here barring some miracle.

His donors were maxed out after the first quarter of last year, and his fundraising fell off the cliff in the second half of 2015. I'm not surprised he's running short on money.

I think he will drop out if he doesn't finish ahead of Kasich and Rubio.

Most of his donors have held back more money since a lot of them don't see his campaign going anywhere. I love Jeb and I think he'd be a great president, but he's running in the wrong era, and the electorate is out for blood and Jeb isn't going to be the one to feed them.

Well, if he finishes ahead of Rubio and Kasich then he shouldn't drop out, but I don't think that will happen.

Uh, I work for a firm that does Jebs! campaign and am in the office right now. The mood is rather grim, and nobody seems to be talking about the SC race. They've been testing automated calls all day and right now they are talking about something related to Greenville SC.

If he was dropping out, I'd hear about it though. I am close to one of the associates here and since I am the first (and probably the last, no matter how good I do) intern here, I get treated rather well and usually get the inside track-or as much as they are willing to tell me, at least.

I'm assuming your joking, but if you're not than you must be telling the truth and have VERY VERY close ties to the Bush campaign. That's pretty obvious by your Ted Cruz sticker under your name LOL.

Adios JEB!!

I don't think that working for a firm that does Jeb! signs means you must support him.

Guy hires you and keeps you on as an intern yet you don't support his efforts and publically embrace his competitor? That makes sense.

He likely works for a consulting firm that just designs and produces the signs, not the actual campaign.

Yeah that doesn't mean much. If Rubio surges and Jeb! Bleeds support tomorrow and he finishes in the single digits, it has to be game over.
