Calling Out Hillary
Hillary Clinton is called out many times during the debate. During one specific time, Jeb Bush says that "this [the economy] may be the best Hillary Clinton can do, but it is not the best America can do." By saying this, he implies that America is better than Hillary Clinton, and therefore she should not be elected. He compares Hillary to the rest of America, and therefore he is appealing to logos.

It is true that Hillary is being called out by many candidates during the debate. However, I don't think this is a logos appeal. Since it has to do with her qualifications as president and her reputation, I think it is more of a ethos appeal. By weakening Clinton's ethos, Bush is strengthening his own.
