Bush Ramps Up Travel Schedule

November 20, 2013 at 8:27 am EST By Taegan Goddard Leave a Comment

The Week notes that even though former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R) “has insisted that he’s not going to think about running for president until the middle of next year, but his busy travel schedule and his anti-ObamaCare talking points suggest that he is already laying the groundwork for the primaries.”

“All in all, it certainly looks like Jeb is intent on keeping his name in the mix, and is going through the necessary steps to establish a coherent platform. Whether he can find a position on the ideological spectrum between the Tea Party and Christie — and overcome suspicions about his position on immigration reform — remains to be seen.”
