Marco Rubio blasted Rand Paul but said Jeb Bush would be a credible candidate if the former Florida governor decides to run for president.

On ABC's "This Week," Florida's Republican senator said he had not decided whether to seek the White House in 2016.

"Jeb is going to be a very -- if he decides to run, he is going to be a very credible and a very significant candidate in this race," Rubio told George Stephanopoulos. "I have tremendous respect for him."

Is Rubio trying to lose the Senate race?

[TurboZamboni]

that would be an ‘act of love’ to me.

[Politicalkiddo]

I feel like most Republicans are on drugs.

[dvan]

Don’t believe we need any more ‘family dynasties”

[Ray76]

Rubio is a Bush creation, of course he’s going to say stupid sycophantic things.

[ZULU]

Marco, you just struck out - permanently.

NO MORE BUSHES!

[Mercat]

Well, he can’t be running for Vice President.

[TomGuy]

Seems to be the new GOP Elite narrative: Jeb IS conservative.

==

Last week, Jeb announced that he didn’t need the conservatives, that he could win without them.

That doesn’t sound very ‘conservative’, Marco.

Maybe Jeb can hide under the ‘compassionate conservative’ claim, like his bro did.

unbelievable Rubio must have been promised a cabinet position if another Bushy wins.

[ExSoldier]

Nobody who supports Common Core in education can claim to be a true conservative.

So how would Rubio know what a conservative looks like???

[Kirkwood]

Curious that there are several quotes attributed to Rubio in the article, but no direct quote about Jeb Bush being a conservative.

[VanDeKoik]

These people are on the crack rock!

Strike Two......

I noticed that Rick Perry was praising Jeb Bush. They must not realize that Jeb Bush is a tar baby.

[Salvation]

For later.

Nonsense. Something happens when people get inside the “beltway” as Rush calls it, they change, and here Rubio has too. I used think Rubio was a conservative, now that he thinks Jeb is one, not anymore. And yes he will lose the senate if he keeps talking like this. It is the air, the water, or most probably the power. This has got to change.

[Fiji Hill]

Jeb Bush a true conservative? Yeah, just like that candidate we chose the last time around who proclaimed himself to be “severely conservative.”

[dainbramaged]

Marco, repeating a lie over and over doesn't make it la verdad.
