Jeb Bush, an Also-Ran in Iowa, May Be Pivotal in New Hampshire
FEB. 3, 2016
[...]
Yet there are signs Mr. Bush may still have some work to do to finish in the top tier here. Speaking to a crowd at the Hanover Inn near the Vermont border during his final stop of the day, Mr. Bush finished a fiery riff about protecting the country as commander in chief — “I won’t be out here blowharding, talking a big game without backing it up,” he said — and was met with total silence.
“Please clap,” he said, sounding defeated.
The crowd laughed — and then, finally, clapped.

Iowan Comforts Sobbing Jeb Bush At Town Hall



NEWS IN BRIEF
January 29, 2016
Vol 52 Issue 03

DES MOINES, IA—Slowly approaching the distraught, trembling presidential candidate before embracing him in a gentle hug, 42-year-old single mother Holly Sullivan comforted a sobbing Jeb Bush during a town hall forum, sources confirmed Friday. “It’s all going to be okay,” Sullivan said in a soothing voice after Bush broke down in tears while describing his executive experience, reportedly patting him on the back as he rested his head on her shoulder and told her that things were “too hard” and that he could not continue on like this anymore. “I know it looks bad, but you’re going to make it through this. You’re a brave man just for standing up and sharing your story like this.” Sources confirmed that sympathetic audience members then applauded Bush as he was escorted off the stage by his wife.
