Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush made a significant shift in strategy Wednesday night by launching a direct attack on rival Donald Trump, questioning the businessman's conservative credentials.
Bush's comments about Trump came as the two held rival town hall meetings about 20 miles apart from each other. The dueling appearances dominated cable news coverage Wednesday night as several channels broadcast split screens to demonstrate a contrast in styles. While Bush led a more intimate gathering of mostly elderly voters, Trump took the stage before 2,500 people packed into a theater in Derry.

Yeah, that’ll work.
Jeb is putzifying himself more and more as time goes on, if that’s even possible. But he’s making it more and more clear. Actually, I think Jeb is very, very good at explaining what a putz he is.
Jeb! With all do respect, it is time for you to exit stage left! Cuz I would rather vote for a Democrat who’s position on immigration is in line with my own, than to vote for a Republican who’s position is aligned with Marxist!!!
Jeb Bush had “a more intimate gathering??” I believe the plainspeak interpretation for this is “nobody showed up”.
Great!
Huddle up. Let’s try “Trump’s a Dem”. Ready, break!
I saw a clip of Jeb knocking Mr. Trump.
Jeb is maaaaad.
Yebbie would be the man to know all about long term democrats. That’s a certainty.
So are you Jeb, so are you.
Why would Jeb consider being a Democrat a negative?
Jeb Bush should know since he’s been one all his political life. Now he tries to smear Trump - throw stuff to see what will stick.
A long term Jackass calling Trump a long term Democrat!?
“Jeb Bush attacks Donald Trump, calls him a long-term Democrat”
Says the long-term democrat.
Well, maybe not precisely democrat but the Bush family failed the legacy test horrendously. The end of the last Bush presidency was a object lesson in how to ignore the public and do what the power elite tell you to do rather than what is best for your country in the long term.
For him to say that to Trump is more like projecting himself and his family onto someone else.
We simply cannot support another GOP-E candidate. We have to begin the reform process of the party this time or never.
Maybe that will be Trump, maybe Cruz or maybe someone else. Whatever the outcome it MUST NOT be an establishment pick like Jeb.
The next prez needs to be in a position and have the desire to assist in ousting Boehner and McConnel.
Jeb is a gift to Donald. Anyone worrying about Donald’s conservative bonafides have to be reassured that the head RINO is saying he’s not conservative enough. Jeb makes Donald look like he is to the right of Reagan.
Like anyone cares what jeb says? Was never going to vote jeb but am very pleased he is such a yucky candidate.
I watched Trump’s speech in NH. Didn’t sound like a dem to me.
Trump may have had a bigger crowd, but he wasn’t Presidential.
“You know what’s happening to Jeb’s crowd just down the street? They’re sleeping!”

Those kind of words from Trump upset a lot of Freepers.
Do we really want a President who attacks others, and talks like that?
That’s not Presidential.
Is Jeb a Neo-Democrat?
