As quoted in  As Jeb Bush Struggles, Some Allies Blame His ‘Super PAC’.  (The New York Times, 1/20/2016)

If you followed Real Clear Politics, you saw, starting in late July, evidence of Trump's increasing momentum in the race.

Could it have been blunted had one or more of the candidates launched a direct attack?  Who knows?  This is, of necessity, armchair quarterbacking, after all.

But take a look anyway.

17.8% represents Bush's 2015 peak

What if just 10% of that terrific $100,000,000 raised by Right to Rise had been targeted to take down Trump?

Yup, what if.
