On Tuesday, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush finished fourth in the New Hampshire primary - behind front-runner Donald Trump, Ohio Gov. John Kasich, and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz.
Jeb wasn't fazed, however, by what the media and pundits have called a "disappointing loss."

Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush saw a major dive in favorability points over the last six months, according to the latest Gallup poll released this morning...
Maybe it's time to remove the exclamation point from his campaign logo.

Trump vs. Bush at the CNN Debate - if you watched it, you know these two candidates went head-to-head. Trump accused Bush of being a "bought" politician.
In return, Bush pointed out that Trump had in fact been one of many businesspersons who tried, unsuccessfully, to buy him. To which Trump responded, "No way."

The race is on for 2016 presidential candidates. A wide field of 22 hopefuls -- 17 Republicans and five Democrats (Vice President Joe Biden is anticipated to make six) -- are busy vying for campaign donations.
Many traditional big-time celebrity political donors have not yet made a contribution in 2015. For instance, nothing from actor Morgan Freeman so far. Freeman was the third-largest celebrity contributor in the 2012 election cycle, with more than $1 million given to Hillary Clinton's Priorities USA Action super PAC. And actor husband-and-wife team Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson, the seventh-largest celebrity donors that cycle ($173,231 to Democrats) are also yet to contribute.
But a few others have already picked their candidate favorites in the 2016 presidential race.
Here are ten of the biggest celebrities that have already donated in 2015...

One candidate who shined in last night's Republican debates was a name not often mentioned by the mainstream media.

But is that a fair assessment of her leadership ability?
