Conservative Group Targets 'Unelectable' Jeb Bush in New Ad
Newsmax ^ | 5/13/15 | Melanie Batley

Posted on 05/13/2015 8:55:14 AM PDT by jimbo123

A conservative group is launching an ad against former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, tying him to Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton and branding him "unelectable."

According to The Hill, ForAmerica will launch the one-minute Web ad Wednesday in early-voting states, where the group says it has a "massive digital and social media network." The five-figure ad will appear in Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina, and Nevada as well as Florida, Maine, Colorado, Minnesota, and Missouri.

"Almost all Republicans understand Hillary Clinton would make a terrible president," text from the ad reads. "All except one."

The ad then cuts to Bush presenting an award to Clinton in 2013 and thanking her for her public service.

"Mr. Bush is unelectable and there are several better options for conservatives and Republicans if they want to win in 2016. Period," said ForAmerica chairman Brent Bozell in a statement, according to The Hill. "By heaping praise on Hillary Clinton, Mr. Bush has handed her the ammo to bury him ... and she will. No other potential GOP nominee has that fatal disadvantage."

Either Cruz is the man in 2016 or the GOP loses. Period. End of story. There is NOT another electable candidate in the lot of them. Cruz, or lose. It really is that simple.

Not only will Jeb lose, he will drag down Congressional Republicans too.

I am no supporter of Jeb, but this sort of thing just makes people mad. It doesn’t help.

Why vote for Bush? Might as well vote for Hilary or keep Obama. There’s no difference.

George Pataki (???) is running ads in soviet Red Hampshire stating that Republicans need to ignore 'social issues' like abortion and gay marriage...they are 'distractions' that will put Hillary in the White House.

This is the mindset of northeast Republicans, people...wonder how many other candidates think like this??? The gruesome, agonizing slaughter of an unborn child is a 'distraction'..?

Any Bush not just .... but especially Jeb is UNELECTABLE at this point in time. Jeb needs to move aside and make room a VIABLE candidate. All he is doing by continuing to run is dilute the base.

If the Republicans don’t put up Scott Walker they will lose and do so without me and my whole family. It is as simple as that. Cruz is a wonderful man and would make a great candidate but a loser none the less. Walker has taken everything the Democrats and unions could have possibly throw at him and still kicked ash in a blue state. We have changed our registration to “no party” so we’re just watching; but no Walker= no vote; we’ve been lied to way too much by the Republicans.

“Unelectable and clueless.”

Maybe he’s just running to push us in a certain direction.

Brent...you are wasting your money running this ad in soviet Red Hampshire...this state is a progressive matriarchy, and Hillary will win without much of a struggle. Conservative money would be better spent outside the soviet bloc of Red England.

I didn’t mean to leave out Dole. He was just so forgettable; but I meant no disrespect.

Now THIS is a great idea.

I've been saying the Jebber isn't a very good candidate for months. Here's how we overcome the GOPe's attempts to convince the public otherwise.

No wonder we lose so often. Grow up, there are other candidates who are worthy of getting behind if they win the nomination.
