Florida congressman says his 2016 choice is Jeb

YH Jeb Bush

Despite there being two Republican titans in Florida mulling 2016 presidential bids, Rep. Dan Webster has settled on one.

The second-term congressman barely paused to think last week when he was asked which candidate he supports in the next White House run.

“Jeb Bush,” he said almost immediately after the questioner finished. “No he is not a candidate yet, but he is my choice.”

Webster appears to be the first Florida elected official on the record for Bush.  Most Sunshine State GOPers have expressed respectful neutrality when posed with a similar query, given Sen. Marco Rubio’s designs on a national campaign.
