The problem for Jeb is that he has been good friends with Rubio. I don't like Jeb or his policies (or his brother) but he seems to lack the desire to do anything he needs to do to win. He is reluctant to throw friends under the bus and get his campaign back on the rails. His attempts are half hearted. In a way I can respect him for that...even if I don't really respect the friends he keeps. Rubio will not hesitate to throw him under the bus if he can.

The GOP I think will end up going with Rubio but he does have a lot of skeletons in his closet he can't really explain away. Or hasn't been able to so far. It really is a tremendously underwhelming group of candidates.
