This looks like the end: http://www.politico.com/story/2016/02/j ... obs-219518
Several Jeb Bush campaign workers are already shopping their résumés with Florida political consultants as expectations mount inside his team that their candidate won’t push on after South Carolina.

“I can unequivocally tell you that people are looking for work, because they say they’ve been led to believe that they won’t have a job because the campaign won’t be around any longer or their jobs won’t because the campaign won’t have any money,” said one Republican who helps run one of the Florida campaigns.
Human behavior is economic behavior. The particulars may vary, but competition for limited resources remains a constant.

Jeb has two good attributes:

1. He seems to have been a fairly good governor fiscally.
2. He doesn't really want to be President.

But I can't say I'm terribly sorry to see him go.
