Jeb Bush's presidential campaign has publicly attacked Donald Trump, but it has privately targeted Carly Fiorina.
April Ponnuru, a top policy adviser to Florida's former governor, sent an email received by the Washington Examiner that highlights Fiorina's past support for healthcare mandates akin to Obamacare's controversial individual mandate.
"As recently as 2013, Carly Fiorina supported Obamacare's most hated feature: the individual mandate," Ponnuru wrote. "She spoke out for making Americans buy insurance policies that meet the specifications of Washington, D.C., or pay a fine to the federal government."
Her email included a hyperlink to a video of Fiorina and she added, "Note that this video is from 2013, which means she supported this policy even after conservatives went to the Supreme Court to challenge the constitutionality of Obamacare's individual mandate."
Sarah Isgur Flores, Fiorina's deputy campagin manager, responded swiftly by saying the Bush campaign's criticism was "typical for someone entrenched in the professional political class."
"They attack outsiders because Washington is a giant corrupt bureaucracy and the powers that be don't want it changed," Flores said in a statement. "So they do what they know — politics as usual, talk about problems that they never intend to fix, tear down outsiders by scaring voters into thinking an outsider can't do this job. They're scared because voters are starting to see that Carly can win this job and do this job. They know she is a leader that will challenge the status quo and take back our government for our citizens."
Ponnuru chose not to comment on-the-record to the Examiner, but Bush campaign communications director Tim Miller said the campaign is only preoccupied with Bush.

LOL! Yes, I suppose so...
It's like that in family groups. One brother's cronies may not like the other brother that much.
And if the Rove assassination machine is Fox News, they aren't that much in love with Jeb either.
They may agree with his positions, but if they can get somebody with similar positions but less cumbersome personal baggage, they'll ditch Jeb pretty quickly.
The thing about FioRINO is that she has zero grassroots support and her campaign fundraising shows it.
So her only hope is to steal SuperPac money from Jeb because normal people won’t donate to her campaign and that’s what she’s been trying to do for the past couple of weeks.
Good points but falls on deaf eyes LOL
I strongly doubt Trump or anyone else but Jeb fears her. There’s just way too much dirt on her, and it’s even nicely prepackaged by her former political opponents.

Jeb is having trouble figuring out his political threats. He needs to look in a mirror to find his REAL threat.
