Following a Bloomberg Iowa focus group that sounded unenthused about Jeb Bush’s dynastic ties, Morning Joe host Joe Scarborough said he’d yet to meet a Republican excited specifically about the former Florida governor.
“Nobody’s running around with their hair on fire going ‘I just hate Jeb Bush’ — it’s worse than that,” Scarborough said. “Nobody’s talking about him. I have yet to find the first person in all the Republican events I’ve been to to come up to me and go ‘I’m here for Jeb.’ It’s non-existent.”
The panel agreed Bush would likely make the strongest GOP general election candidate, but wondered how he’d get there if his party didn’t care he existed.
