The Republican presidential debates are still getting a large television audience; Tuesday night, 18 million people tuned in to watch the final debate held in Las Vegas.
One exchange between Jeb Bush and Donald Trump is getting a lot of attention.
Bush: “You're never going to be President of the United States by insulting your way to the presidency.”
Trump: “Well, let's see, I'm at 42 and you're at three, so, so far I'm doing better.”
Bush: “It doesn't matter.”
With Bush’s poll numbers consistently in the single digits, the newest member of the News On 6 team, retired Republican Senator Tom Coburn, thinks Bush is out of it.

"Jeb would make a great president. He's a good man, but the American people...before you had trouble polling...46-percent don't like the name Bush - that's a hard hill to climb if you're a nominee, which means you can only give up. You gotta get 51 percent out of 54 percent, that's a pretty hard ride," he said.
Coburn will be with us throughout the election season giving his views on the campaign and the major issues of the day.
