Since Jeb supports Rubio does that mean you oppose Rubio?

Ever hear of a stopped clock and twice a day?

You gotta be kidding.
So if 0bama supports the Chicago Bulls, and you support the Chicago Bulls as well, that means you agree with 0bama on everything?
And when did Jeb Bush start supporting Rubio anyway? Wasn't it only recently, after Rubio had alrady taken the lead in the polls? Jeb Bush just but his finger in the air, saw which way the wind was blowing, and decided to “support” Rubio as well.

Jeb doesn't support Rubio, and in fact was FULL ON in Crist’s camp until he recently got wind of a possible third-party run by Crist. Then, all of a sudden, he discovered that supporting the stimulus (his brother's stimulus, BTW, which he supported at the time) was “unforgivable.”

Now he'll likely fall in line behind Rubio to cover his butt, but he certainly has shown NO love for Rubio so far.

Jeb, and Mitt, will throw their support behind a highly-favored candidate, or late in a race when a candidate looks like they have a chance at the end. Palin, however, puts it all on the line, having endorsed the VA governor, Scott Brown, Hoffman, Rubio, and Perry long before it was trendy to do so. Mitt was late to the party each time, or isn't even there yet at all; and Jeb keeps finding himself putting his credentials on the line for people who ultimately get smashed or revealed as not the loyal Republicans he promised they were.

I liked Jeb, and was willing to give him a pass on his family name WHEN he declares in 2016 (if we lose 2012) - that's WHEN, not IF. But this is his second shot at Palin, and second blast at Reagan nostalgia. I'm done with Jeb - NO MORE BUSHES, EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
