Libertarian presidential candidate Gary Johnson hinted Wednesday that former Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush might be considering an endorsement.
"I can't say that we haven't had conversations," Johnson said in a Wednesday afternoon conversation on CNN from Cleveland. "But no push on the conversations."
Johnson said he has also had conversations with 2012 GOP nominee Mitt Romney.
When asked who initiated the conversations, Johnson replied, "Not me." When asked if the former Florida governor has called him, Johnson added quickly, "I don't want to — I want to protect the innocent.

Look for Trump’s poll numbers to increase slightly if Yeb endorses
Johnson, as Johnson supporters flee in horror.

Johnson was a good Governor here in NM, but if Yebshrub endorses outside the GOP after reneging on his pledge to support the nominee then he is done in the Republican party.

So jeb spent fifty million each for three votes last night at the convention...how much is this going to cost Gary Johnson and can he afford to carry a cash sucking cow like Jeb around the country?
Jebuardo is offering discounted campaign items now ...

Yet another thumb in the eye from the elite to those who gave of their time, talent, and treasure through the years in support of the GOP.
Bastards, all.

That should REDUCE Johnson’s votes quite significantly.

Who cares? Low energy Jeb couldn’t even come in 3rd in his home state and had to quit before hand to avoid total humiliation. And how he’s shown himself (along with Cruz) to be a liar whose word is meaningless.

He doesn't want Johnson to win, he wants Trump to lose. Remember, GWB has admitted that they and the Clinton's are friends.
I would expect a TON of Bush dollars going to Johnson to attempt to siphon off GOP/IND votes to get Clinton elected.
