Jeb Bush hopes new e-book can help relaunch a struggling campaign

esperately seeking to revive a campaign rocked in recent weeks by budget cuts and a poor debate performance, Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush is hoping that his political past can jump-start his political future.

He will release a new e-book this week, "Reply All," a raw, exhaustive anthology of hundreds of self-selected e-mails he sent and received as Florida governor from 1999 to 2007.

The new tome from the avid e-mailer who traveled the state with a BlackBerry holstered to his waist is packed with messages from aides, state legislators, federal officials and everyday Floridians on issues including education reform, immigration reform, tort reform and the state's response to the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.

Readers hoping for fresh insight into Bush's personal life and famous family will be disappointed. Are there interactions with his famous parents? Barely. New information on how he tracked the 2000 Florida ballot recount? Not really. Copies of e-mails he sent to former president George W. Bush, his brother? Nope.
