"Bush running on fumes"

That title, "Bush running on fumes," is typical of what we see on the eve of the South Carolina primary.   Donors are refusing to give him more money;   crowds are less than expected;  reportedly some of his staff are sending out their resumes, seeking other work.

As a further measure of the gloom pervading the Bush campaign, Jeb signed off a town hall on Friday with these parting words to his supporters: 

“I hope that you believe that it’s possible for us to do this. 
I hope you don’t think the end is near.”

The end is near.
