Polling - Jeb Bush still finds himself far behind in polling. This includes more than simply the polls for the Republican nominee, he also finds himself behind in polls regarding how much the people trust the candidates to address Americas current domestic and international issues. Rubio has taken a commanding lead over Jeb at this point.
Policy Issues - Jeb has come out supporting American acceptance of Syrian refugees... as long as they are Christian. Obama attacked him ont his stance saying that it is "diametrically opposite to American values." Despite a critical attack from Obama, the rest of the Republican candidates seem to reflect Jeb's views but were much less transparent in the "Christian only" framework.
Fundraising - Jeb's renewed fundraising effort, while helping, still is not putting him back at his original "Shock and Awe" numbers. However, comparatively to most candidates, he still is getting quite a bit of funding.
Overview - Jeb Bush's campaign is still in critical condition. You can see this simply by googling his name. The articles that appear will, more often than not, not be about him. At this point his google search results are mirroring his ability as a candidate, he is becoming a footnote. His only saving grace may come from the fact that early polling is usually not indicative of actual voting results. The Atlantic has dubbed this the front-runner fallacy.
