A top adviser to Mitt Romney's 2008 and 2012 presidential campaigns has backed a likely White House run by former Florida governor Jeb Bush, a Bush aide confirmed to Fox News late Tuesday.
Vin Weber, a former Minnesota congressman, has been meeting with and speaking to conservative heavyweights in effort to persuade them of Bush's credentials, a Washington-based GOP operative said.

Jeb should run in the Democratic primaries against Hillary.
Loser.
Vin Webber has been on the patroll of The Cheap Labor Express for years.
The presence of so many of them was why I knew Romney was lying about amnesty, which he confirmed shortly after losing the election.
Vin Weber is a partner at a K-street lobbying firm.
About the only thing Mitt Romney said during his 2012 campaign that convinced me to hold my nose and vote for him (instead of just staying home or voting for a 3d party no-name) was his very reasonable suggestion that we can make life so difficult for illegals (denial of social services) that they're self-deport.
Unfortunately, that proved about as sincere as the rest of his feeble attempts at sounding right of center. Once he lost, Romney and his team were all aboard the amnesty (oh, sorry, "path to citizenship") express.
Let me guess, open borders advocate and pro-Islamist Grover Nordquist is also backing Jeb, right?

As I said, he’d make a great Democratic candidate. He could even pick his son, La Raza posterboy Jorge Prescott Bush as his running mate.
Grover is backing Walker from what I read.
The strategy of encouraging self deportation through enforcement is the right strategy. Romney wasn’t serious about doing it.
We need to find someone who will.
Of course he does as does the elitist GOP.
If they want to force Biush on us then so be it but they should not complain when millions stay at home again on our side due to yet another RINO poor candidate forced onto us by the money elitist, pro homosexual, no balls, GOP.
Illegals mostly exploit the healthcare system by infesting emergency rooms for non-emergency care. That's going to be a tough one to do something about since ER's won't turn people away (the most they can do is give low priority to non-emergency cases).
On the other hand, we can make it impossible for illegals to get driver's licenses, send their kids for state-funded daycare and remedial Spanish-only "education" in our schools, and a whole range of other things that would make them less than comfortable here. Also, we need to put an end to the mantra "we can't deport them all." We can't, but we can make an example of the fraction that we do catch and deport.
As you say, we don't need any new laws, just someone with the will to enforce those that we have. Romney wasn't that, and Jeb Bush sure as hell isn't the one to do so either.
Tells you everything that you need to know about Bush (and already knew anyway.)
Former top Romney strategist backs Jeb Bush’s possible 2016 White House run
Of course he does.
Some guy who worked for Romney’s 2012 campaign was posting at a leftwing anti-Freeper site, yukking it up with the liberals. He claimed to have kicked a Freeper out of his office, and declared that Romney did a good job of reining in the right-wing crazies.
Seeing that was confirmation—though I didn’t need it—that I’ve made the right choice in swearing off voting for liberal Republicans.
I WILL NEVER VOTE FOR JEB!
Might as well get someone that worked for the Dole campaign.
