Do the citizens of Florida have more of an approval of George W. Bush or Jeb Bush?

I live in Florida and voted against Bush twice.  Floridians, like most everyone else, are seeing that George Bush is incompetent and has done great harm to the United States and its prestige around the world.  Jeb, on the other hand, seems to be getting high marks from most Floridians.  He is more articulate, seems more intelligent and appears to be more compassionate than his cold, conservative brother.\n\nIt's hard to say how Florida will vote in the next election.  There are really two Floridas in terms of voting blocs.  The big metro areas tend to go Democratic because of the large hispanic and black populations located there.  The immigration issue won't hurt Bush here because most hispanics are already Democrats.\n\nThe other Florida is the part I live in, the West coast and the St. Pete, Palm Beach areas.  These are populated by people who are retired and have moved here from someplace.  They tend to be rabid Republicans, and are fixated on their security over all other things.  The county I live in would vote solid Republican if Adolf Hitler was the candidate.  If enough of them are swayed by the damage the Bush administration has done to the United States, Florida could go Democrat in the next election.

While it's not clear whether Americans would be willing to put another Bush in the White House, the late-night comedians are salivating over the prospect:\n\n"Florida Gov. Jeb Bush says he wants to be president. Well that's good, somebody will have to pardon his brother." —David Letterman\n\n"Rumor is that President Bush's brother, Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, may run for president. Rumor is? According to Florida voting machines, he's already won." —Jay Leno

I am a Republican.  Too bad President Bush can't run again.  I would vote for him a third time.  Maybe we will get lucky and Jeb will run for President.

George W Bush's brother, Jeb Bush, is the govenor of Florida.  The Bush family has Jeb under their thumb.  There are multiple problems here: curruption, racism, greed, dirty politics, Republicans - whatever you want to call it.  These aren't "Accidents", these are planned out courses of action.

Wow, that is hard.  On one hand you have a totally selfish lier willing to go at any length to please himself.  On the other you have a total moron willing to go to any length to please the selfish liers controlling him.  I guess I would go with Bush because he is so cute when he forgets what he's talking about.

"Florida" didn't spend the money, the candidate's supporters did.  It doesn't bother me: let the voters choose, and who are we to tell the voters of Florida who they can vote for or not vote for?

Probably only those who voted for George W. Bush. They are all wacko.

"Jeb"(stands for John Ellis Bush), the president's brother, is Governor of Florida.  I've lived there, and frankly, he was a pretty good governor, and is quite popular in the state with all varieties of people. I think he would have made a much better president than the current Bush.  He is far more intelligent, and seems to have more consistent principles. He's never had a drinking problem, and appears to be a very stable man. If he were president, I don't think we'd be in Iraq today, I think we'd have made much more progress in Afghanistan, and I think our economy would be much healthier. Plus, the immigration issue would never have become the firestorm it is today, because it would have been dealt with intelligently years ago.  He speaks Spanish fluently, having spent time as an exchange student in Mexico, where he met is future wife, who is Mexican.  He has a far better understanding of the world.  \n\nIt certainly is POSSIBLE that he could run, but I think it would be highly unlikely.  First, he recognizes that the Bush name carries a lot of negative weight at this point in history. Secondly, his family has had some problems in the last few years, and I think he'd rather put those issues firmly in the past before he considers higher office.  (For those who don't know, his daughter Noelle has struggled with a drug problem, and his wife Columba was caught trying to sneak past customs without reporting items she purchased while visiting Paris - she was fined over $4000).  I think Jeb is looking forward to a few years out of the public eye so that he can spend time with the family and ensure that these types of things are not ongoing problems, before he would consider running for anything again.\n\nIt is possible that he might consider running for president sometime in the future, perhaps 5 or 10 years from now.  But the far more likely scenario is that Jeb's son, George P. Bush, might be considered for political office 20 or more years from now.  He made quite a stir when he spoke at the 2004 Republican Convention.\n\nWhile I can certainly understand why people would be opposed to having another Bush in power at this time, I'd suggest that these two brothers are very different people.  I agree that it is time for a change.  But Jeb is not the same person as George W., and seems to hold very different values.  I don't think he will run.  I don't think he would win if he DID run.  But even if he did, I don't think we would see the same approach to the world that his brother has taken.  It would be a very different world.

President Bush, I can see how to work through tough times with a lot of stupid liberals critizing everything and complementing nothing.  I once heard a liberal say that hurricane Katrina was bush's fault.\n\nOur president is so confident and strong in his faith that he can work through this and still succede

Absolute geniuses. Bush supporters aren't regular Americans, it doesn't even matter if he gets their vote. The real supporters of bush are the multi-millionaire business men. They put millions into getting him the job and now they are getting rewarded ten times over - tax cuts for the rich, huge increases in military budget, environmental protection of the issue, access to Iraqi oilfields. He (well Cheney and the people who really make decisions) is serving his constituency very well. It's a pity they comprise around 0.1% of the American population.\n\nAs for the regular people who support him, worst kind of idiots!

Given Bush's current approval rating (34-38%) and the way he has split America in two, he is a divider, not a uniter. Bush and his group of rich fat cats is no way in touch with the American people.

Didn't Uncle Jeb run one of those tests on the Elderly of Florida during the 2000 election with Al Gore/ Bush. I heard Al Gore won Florida, and then "HUH" for some reason the Elderly in Florida weren't competent enough to vote. The Republican media said the Elderly were incompetent of voting when they had voted for 50 years. So yes I think an IQ test should be required to keep the idiots away from politics.

I disagree and I am an Independent that likes Bush. I would vote for Zeb or Joe Lieberman. Even though Joe is not a Christian which does bother me he, is a great Patriot and honest man.

I'm not sure what Mr. Frist stands for, as for Jeb Bush i don't think he could get elected on a bet.  I think America has had enough bush for awhile( and I voted for the first two).  I think Juliani would have a good shot even though i don't think he is Conservative enough. But then again maybe we as a country can get behind someone like him. He did stand Tall for New York on 911.  I guess we will have to see what they offer us and pick the lesser of two evils.  I for one am really sick of our two party system and would really consider libertarian if they could get a good candidate.
