Since the first face-to-face encounter with Trump, Bush's once-dominant status has been erased. His numbers peaked at nearly 17 percent nationally in mid-July, but they were cut in half by last week to just 8.3 percent, according to a RealClearPolitics average of polls frequently cited by campaigns. In New Hampshire, a CBS News/YouGov poll released Sunday put him in a tie for fifth place, far behind Trump, retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson, Ohio Gov. John Kasich and businesswoman Carly Fiorina.
The drop also resulted in what top donors have hinted was a less-than-anticipated haul in fundraising during August, forcing the campaign to tighten its spending. While the changes affected mostly senior campaign aides, the most notable change is that Bush, who spent most of the year traveling on private jets to campaign events, has started flying commercial airliners more often, as he did Friday.

I love how the bottom of the field's poll numbers come in: Perry 1%; Santorum 0.8%; Jindal 0.3%; Graham (like Mr. Blutarski) zero. point. zero.
What a collection of sh!t.
I watched Trump's interview on Colbert last night...I'm starting to like that guy. For a conservative dick, at least he's not the xtian Taliban. His saber rattling with Iran and China is stupid and pointless but entertaining. If I didn't think he'd serve elephant steaks dusted with powdered rhino horn at the inaugural dinner I might just be inclined to vote for him.
