Former Florida Governor Jeb Bush praised former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg today, calling him a "good man" and a "patriot."
During an interview with CNN's Jake Tapper this morning, Bush was asked what he thought of the news that Bloomberg was considering entering the 2016 presidential race.
"Mike Bloomberg is a good man," Bush said. "We disagree on a whole lot of things, but he's a good person and he's a patriot and wants the best for the country."

That endorsement should give Mikey a running start as an independent, faster and even better than H. Ross Perot in 1992.
Oh, wait. Perot was running because he HATED the whole Bush family. With a burning passion.
I’m confused. Jeb wants TWO billionaires in the race, so he can hitch his wagon to one of them?
For sure it is far too late to get on the good side of The Donald.
Not according to our 22 self-appointed "conservative leaders" at NRO.
The elite. They’re so much smarter than we.
Bloomberg is not a good man. He is an Orwellian control freak who wants to tell us even the size of a soda we can buy. And he is creepy.
I imagine he would say the same thing about the Clintons.
His creepy homo weekends on Bermuda will come back to haunt him if he runs.
Meanwhile Bloomberg is just Trump with a less feminized personality.
It’s plain to see that the GOPe really had their “boy” little Jebber ready to go and completely wreck what we had left of our freedoms and liberties.
Too bad that that mean MR. Trump spoiled their wet dreams.
You have to admit, Bloomberg and Soros would both make a good Bond Villains.
This is one of those political miracles.
Jeb and Trump are in full agreement.
Trump loves Bloomie.
Jeb is sucking up. He wants to be Bloomberg’s VP pick when the Dem Convention picks Bloomberg as their nominee, after Clintoon is arrested.
Getting on the ballot in each state will be interesting. Don’t know how it works if he is the nominee per a divided convention. It could happen if HILLAry is indicted and forced to withdraw
This kind of crap is why Jeb Bush is not going anywhere. He did this kind of stuff in Florida and people noticed and remembered, consequently he can’t get the votes.

Trump on whether New York City was better under Giuliani or Bloomberg
I don’t want to say that because they are both friends of mine. But they’ve both been great mayors. Michael’s done a great job, and Rudy did a great job. They really have both been outstanding mayors, so I don’t want to have to get into who did better, but they’ve both been great mayors. It’s a very interesting question, by the way.

Trump loves Bloomer and their families are great friends.
Simple expressions of love for Bloomturd could be just to suck him into the race and split the DemonCrap vote. Many of us here want him in the race just to split the DemonCrap vote.
Jeb has steadfastly refused to say he would support Trump as nominee. Now Bloomberg is talking about running 3rd party, and Jeb is making nice. Draw your own conclusions.
“Simple expressions of love for Bloomturd could be just to suck him into the race and split the DemonCrap vote.”
It was a 2011 interview.
Jebbie is trying to get a VP nod from Bloomberg.
Oops, the comments are four years old, but maybe Bloomberg remembers Jebbie saying it.
