The polling data (unfavorables) on Jeb are a lot higher than they were on Romney, suggesting his ability to win a plurality of the Republican voters is lower than we might think.

Gingrich had problems that no amount of money in the world could fix. That's not Jeb's problem. Jeb's problem is he's GWB's brother. I also don't think he's handled this part of his campaign particularly well. He wanted to be above the fray as the inevitable nominee, and that's clearly not going to be the case. I might be proven wrong, but I think when the dust settles Jeb is going to emerge as the comfortable nominee.
