Jeb Bush Draws A Crowd In Aiken, SC

|| By FITSNEWS || Former Florida governor Jeb Bush brought his presidential campaign to Aiken, S.C. this week – touting his recently unveiled proposals to take on “Mount Washington” (a.k.a. Washington, D.C.).

Our view? Bush’s rhetoric on reform is great … but the policy he’s proposing leaves a lot to be desired.

Anyway, Bush’s Aiken visit drew a big crowd including former S.C. Department of Health and Environmental Control director Catherine Templeton (above, red dress) and former “Republican” candidate for S.C. Superintendent of Education Sally Atwater (above, with sign), wife of legendary GOP strategist Lee Atwater.

Both Templeton and Atwater were on Bush’s recently announced Palmetto State leadership team – news of which was reported exclusively by FITS.

Fools are plentiful in Aiken, I guess. Wasn’t Atwater the one who sounded like she was having a bad acid trip during an interview program when she was running for state Superintendent of Education?

Please, no more Bush, OR Clinton, for that matter.

Templeton is boneriffic. That’s the only reason to attend a Jeb Bush event, the hope that you can wade through some Bush to score some Templeton.

No wedding ring on Templeton’s hand in the pic. Anyone got scoop?

She’s gone “full-blown” politician. Thus, her marriage is now either (a) failed, or (b) will have failed but remain propped up in a fake manner so as to keep the sheep impressed with her “morals.”

Any gathering is too big of a security risk for Nikki to attend. SLED is keeping her tight in Columbia.

A lot of Republicans are sizing up the candidates to decide who they want to vote for next Feb. Clue—Bush ain’t the right size. The establishment types want him but not so much anyone else. Walker is the real deal. Wise up folks.

I wonder what would happen if 3 or 4 of the candidates polling right below Trump all agreed to campaign at the same location and hold a town hall meeting together. They could create a discussion about them and not about Trump. All he could really do is complain that he wasn’t invited. I love the fact that Trump is an outsider and giving the establishment hell. I hope that he starts tearing in to Hillary soon. But, As a matter of strategy the rest of the filed has to find a way to move the conversation away from Trump.

Jeb said today he wanted to kill Medicare. Had no replacement in mind. I guess leave seniors citizens and the disabled persons to the free market. I wondered when the first Republican would begin the same old we need to cut middle class programs to pay for tax cuts for the wealthy crap. He obviously owes the same people his brother owed. It was only a matter of time. We are the only first world country without Universal Health Care and now Jeb wants to throw senior citizens and the disabled under the bus so he can give away money to his big donors. Well screw Jeb. He will never be President..
