It's make or break time for Jeb Bush

[Absentee Voting Ghost of Ruin]

Not yet, but it's getting there. I think by Thanksgiving, he'll need to make his move in the polls.  That being said, I think the nomination is still his if he wants it. He's got the $$$ and the machine behind him.  Sometimes if you're in the media's eyes too long, you go stale.  Perhaps this is a calculated strategy?

That's been my speculation as well for a while. I just have trouble believing it sometimes, because he's been coming across as so awfully ham-handed and tone-deaf.
