Jeb Bush, unable to muster enthusiasm for his presidential bid beyond the family network that helped him raise a record sum exceeding $150 million, is suspending his campaign following a disappointing finish in South Carolina.

The decision follows a string of underwhelming primary finishes for the former Florida governor, including in New Hampshire where he invested heavily and bet on a massive ground organization but still finished behind Donald Trump, John Kasich and Ted Cruz.

He also took only 2.8 percent of the vote in Iowa’s first in the nation caucuses, despite having outspent his rivals there, too, and campaigned until the very end. In South Carolina on Saturday night, he was on track to finish a distant fourth. His archrival Trump trounced the field with 33 percent of the vote, while Cruz and Rubio were running in a virtual tie with roughly 22 percent.

  1. If I was Bush and could keep all the left over campaign funds (which is millions of dollars) like he’s doing; I would quit and keep the money too! May as well get something! out of the deal. This country would never have elected him anyway.
