TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush thinks Sen. Marco Rubio is ready to be vice president and he shared those thoughts with presumptive Republican nominee Mitt Romney, he said Wednesday.

Bush said he has been a huge fan of Rubio's for years and hopes that Romney chooses him. He said he made his pitch to Romney in a recent conversation, but the former Massachusetts governor didn't reveal which direction he was leaning. Bush said the choice is a personal one and respects Romney for keeping his thoughts close to his vest.

Romney has said he is considering Rubio, a freshman senator who was elected in 2010.

I was aware he was a UF grad, just didn’t know which side he rooted for. UF or Miami. He enjoyed the RP’s credit card for a while also..

I guess since he lives in Miami he probably pulls for the Canes. Your coach has the D-1 record now.

Amnesty for everyone!

Just think what President Romney and a GOP controlled Congress led by such pro-liberty stalwarts as Boehnor, McConnell, and McCain will be able to accomplish.

Hopefully Senator Rubio will be able to spearhead “comprehensive immigration reform”!

FUMR! .....a two for one in this case.

I wouldn’t mind him I don’t guess - that said - Jeb Bush needs to stay of this...and based on things he’s been saying the last few months, keep out of pretty much everything else.

He’s with Boehner against Michelle Bachman in that there’s been no islamist penetration of the US government. That ends any interest I had in Rubio.

Maybe Rubio can be VP and win Florida, then we can get him to resign before he allows another 12 million illegals in.

Marco Rubio farewell speech

Listen to this

I would kill to have Marco as VP. Even more so to have Luis Fortuño as VP. Hell, I would rather have Rubio/Romney rather than Romney/Rubio.

But we need this guy. Listen to him.

I like Rubio, but not because Jeb thinks he is dandy.

Rubio is an appealing conservative who would make a great VP.

“The American Conservative Union (ACU), America’s oldest and largest grassroots conservative group, announced today that U.S. Senator Marco Rubio’s (R-FL) voting record earned him a perfect “100” based on its 2011 Congressional Scorecard. This puts Rubio among just nine Senators with a score of 100 and earned him the title of “Defender of Liberty.” http://www.rubio.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/press-releases?ID=14338e76-6db7-4739-b4b8-fed4564b6022

Suck it noob. Find a new forum. Bowen is a humble man. He didn’t wish this on anyone. He has class. And will die with class.
