GOP's Campaign Attacks Obama Administration For Inability to Ensure Public Safety

With barely a month before the U.S. midterm elections on November 4, the Grand Old Party (GOP) is ramping up commercials on television and radio highlighting President Barrack Obama and his administration's failure to ensure public safety.

A series of political campaigns uploaded on major social sharing websites feature America in its current battle with Ebola and continuous terrorist threats, not to mention the Secret Service's lapses to protect the First Family.

The National Republican Congressional Committee believes that they are on the competitive side of steering public's confidence against the Democrats. In the video, the GOP criticizes Representative Anne Kirkpatrick's (AZ-D) backing to House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi's proposal to pull out Arizona's funding to secure its border.


Another political ad sponsored by the National Republican Senatorial Committee makes pun of Senator Mark Udall's (CO-D) statement that the Islamic rebel groups ISIS and ISIL do not possess imminent threats to the United States. "Can we take that chance?" the video asks.


Republican candidates like Senator Rand Paul, Senator Ted Paul, and Governor Bobby Jindal, who all placed their 2016 presidential bids, said that Obama paved way to American's vulnerability to Ebola, with some calling him President Ebola.

Meanwhile, former presidential spokesman Robert Gibbs made a sarcastic remark to House Speaker John A. Boehner (OH-R) when he said that voting for Republicans mirrors the voters' "competence". However,  giving the Democrats the majority of Congress seats would not be a substantial thing to do.

Other Republicans like Rob Astorino (NY-R) depicts former president Lyndon B. Johnson's 1964 Daisy campaign that tackles the dangers of nuclear program. Astorino is running against Governor Andrew M. Cuomo in New York's gubernatorial seat.

Amidst all the political agenda, Republican advisor Stuart Stevens, who also was active during Mitt Romney's 2012 presidential race, said that the White House should be at least realistic of the crisis America is currently facing, instead of downplaying the events.

He added that the current administration has no willingness "to admit things are bad," which in effect worsens public perception and crisis preparation.
