Voicing disgust with D.C. politicians and insiders? Check. Offering to challenge that status quo? Check. Demonstrating bona fides, complete with quotes pulled from editorials? Check. A call to action, set to soaring music? Check.
Jeb Bush’s first presidential commercial, dubbed “I’ve Delivered,” looks and feels almost identical to lesser-known Republican candidate Marilinda Garcia’s campaign ad called “Trust.” Ms. Garcia lost her bid last year for a House seat from New Hampshire, but her commercial, it seems, lives on — repackaged for Mr. Bush.
As the former Florida governor struggles to cut through the crowded 2016 GOP presidential field, analysts say he’s running a campaign that’s too formulaic, echoing a broader critique of him as a throwback candidate at a time when many voters are looking to move on.
“There’s a lethargy certain people have with his campaign — like we’ve heard this before, we’ve seen this before, we’ve been there before” said Brian Murphy, a GOP chairman in New Hampshire who is unaffiliated with any Republican contender. “There’s certainly challenges related to his legacy and last name, and some preconceived ideas from voters who think they know him already and are asking, ‘Do we really want a fourth term for the Bush family?’”

More of a throw-up than throw-back.
Idiot re-tread RINO front-man for the Chambers of Commerce of America.

Allow me to sharpen that just a bit, Brian: "Jeb! = SSDD"
Mr. niteowl77
And what does that make Hillary?
The Joyful Tortoise can’t even say why he wants to be President, other than he’s the son of a famous political family.
Jeb should be playing the song ‘Tip-toe thru the Tulips’ at his campaign stops. Have a 2nd version played en espanol.
Musica de ukele por la gente.
Viva El Senor Yeb-—con amore de la corizon.
Hahaha!! Good one! :-)
Jeb really knows how to excite the conservative base. Excited to see him leading the bottom of the barrel.
Jeb said he could win without conservatives.
The next several months will show if he can make good on the bet.
Jeb is a low testosterone manlet.
> More of a throw-up than throw-back.
Agreed!

JEB is no Marilinda Garcia. I’m having difficulty determining why she lost. I doubt it was her campaign. She’s a young, smart, pretty, hispanic, a true conservative, unlike JEB.
Her opposition, Kuster, is an old, ugly, potty-mouthed NARAL hag. Yet she won.
The feminists hate her, though, and the local chapter of NARAL spent a lot of money against her.
It’s time for Tippy Toes the Clown to pack it in...
Just tooooo many Mehhicans, Jeb.
Just toooooooooo many.
One strike, yer out!
