Michelle Malkin (@michellemalkin) March 04, 2013The ex-Florida governor told NBC’s Matt Lauer that he’s open to a possible 2016 presidential bid:
"I won't, but I won't declare today either." -@JebBush to @MLauer on whether he will rule out a presidential run in 2016.—

Jeb Bush to @MLauer on a 2016 presidential bid: "That's way off into the future….I won't [rule out a run.]"—

But many conservatives are hoping the campaign fizzles out before it even begins:
If Jeb Bush is hinting at a 2016 run, the GOP base had better be more than hinting at a resounding "Hell NO!"—

Only thing worse in 2016 than having Presidential election be Jeb Bush & Hillary Clinton would be keeping Obama 4 more years! @GOP #gop—

Jeb is delusional. the days of milquetoast candidates ended with Mitt.—

Jeb Bush, please do everyone a favor and don't run in 2016. Thanks. #CTOT #tcot #TGDN #lnynbt #ocra #TeaParty #gop #ccot—

New rule. No one with the last name "Bush" is ever allowed to run for anything. Ever. Even student council.—

Jeb Bush isn't ruling out a 2016 run. Fine. Let me rule it out for him.—

I like Jeb Bush, more than his brother or father. But God help us if he runs and becomes the nominee.—

Some in the GOP don’t believe a Jeb Bush presidential campaign would be such a bad thing:
Oh, I see it's 'everyone hate on Jeb Bush day' on Twitter. Coolio.—
Kevin Eder (@keder) March 04, 2013
So, Jeb Bush is positioning himself to be exactly the type of candidate the GOP says it needs. IOW, everyone throw things!!!—
Matt Cover (@MattCover) March 04, 2013
But for the most part, conservatives feel that we’ve been there, done that. Another Bush is not the key to victory in 2016:
Does anyone believe that a Bush, any Bush, can beat Hillary Clinton? Because that's what were' talking about.—

Jeb Bush “hinting” at 2016 run: Could he beat HRC in the general? Unlikely. ~ #WASPDynasty—

.@keder I like Jeb Bush. A LOT. More than his bro, actually. I still don't want him running for president. A Bush. v. Clinton race? No.—
Melissa Clouthier (@MelissaTweets) March 04, 2013
So let's nominate him 2016, right? (Eye roll) @melissatweets—

No to Jeb Bush in 2016. Yes to fresh faces with fresh ideas.—

Two Bushes are company; three’s a crowd. Time for a change.

Editor’s note: Our apologies for inadvertently making Kevin Eder sound like the “bad guy.” We’d like to add these tweets to clarify his position and reget any misunderstanding.
I made Twitchy as the bad guy!—

Seriously, though. I took no position at all on Jeb Bush, but apparently my tweet was viewed as an endorsement. LOL—
