ted cruz says if the gop nominates a moderate presumably someone like jeb bush, hillary clinton will n. meanwhile, a new poll was bush in place with -- second place, right around where rand paul is. romney leads the pack with 20%. but take romney out -- i bet you will need does not run -- bush does a lead the deal, bunched up with rand paul, a bunch of others. what does that do to the rest of the republican field? >> they have to get out in force, especially the establishment bracket. i am with you. i think the likeliness of mitt romney running is pretty small. but someone like chris christie who has been running with jeb bush voters -- if they want to see christie and bush going for the establishment donors, it allows them to triangulate up those guys, push off those guys take on a different kind of candidacy. >> as people except the deal for the last year, i think money is not sufficient to read if jeb bush ins sub signing a bundle or or trying to raise money it would be a huge development. i think despite my saying there will not be a front runner until someone wins iowa, i think h

. >> last big tv interview jeb bush did, he was a lot smoother than that.y question is how much does chris christie need to up his game to be considered a top-tier prospect for 2016? >> this would not have gotten out of newhaven. he is a smart guy. he will figure out the foreign policy stuff. i don't think there is any question. i think the larger dilemma for him is will jersey travel? this in-your-face, confrontational style does not have a lot of successful models in politics. the last person to try it was rudy giuliani and it was a complete disaster. if bridgegate ends up ok, i think christie is in. >> he is so confident in his own personality. he says all the time christie has to be christie. what you see is what you get. but, i do agree, i think the jersey thing is a bit -- i think he could travel well. i think people in iowa and new hampshire will like him. the reflex to be contentious speaks toa personality trait that i think will not play well and will trip him up in some high-profile way. >> i agree with you on that. it is not that -- people love t

thanks for taking my calls for sub i like jeb bush. k he is the most intelligent of the bushs that we have had running. i recall his mother saying "don't mess with my boys," and i think she considers it, that the bush family runs the country. i do not like that. host: action, loretta, -- a ctually, loretta, she was on our first lady series, and she said there are other families i can run for the presidency. it is not have to be bush-clinton. she has recently come around. go ahead. caller: to what. -- thank you. guest: the nature of politics and the nepotism involved, like i was saying, how many political pundits are the sons or daughters of famous political pundits? how many of our politicians, you know, the cuomos, for example, these dynasties happen, and it is what it is. i think that it hurts jeb bush that, you know fair that jeb bush -- host: tom, an independent. go ahead. not er: the poor man does stand a chance. host: who do you want to run? caller: randall is probably the best man we have. host: what you say that? a est: rand pau

same way jeb bush has to distinguish himself.get some benefit of the doubt in the way hillary clinton will. but i think with the public he does, he is going to have to, particularly on foreign policy, i think this will be a foreign policy election. >> yeah. >> i think the economy will improve. if the accelerator pedal has been stepped on and the lower gas prices have helped push it further than this time next year we will be in good economic times where the debate will be who do we trust to manage the mess in the middle east. that's where it will get trickier for jeb bush and won't be easier for hillary either. it's a mess under obama, more of a mess under george w. bush, so do you trust a bush to handle the mess. that's the question. where are we a year from now? i think we will be in foreign policy environment and that is where jeb's charge will be harder. >> chuck todd let's do this every day. >> i would love to. >> thank you as always, chuck. make sure to catch chuck every sunday meet the press nbc. thank you chuck. that is a

big political news, former governor jeb bush decision to actively explore the possibility of running everybody has been wondering is he or isn't he? we asked george bush, bush's oldest brother last month this is what he told with us. >> jeb is wrestling with the decision to run for president. he knows what it's like. he has seen his dad and seen his brother. there is no pressure anybody can put on him. i'm confident as he travels around the country is he hearing people say you ought to run. and sure is he flattered by that but only he can make the decision and there is nothing anybody can say to him to help him better understand, you know, the decision-making process. >> and the miami herald may have had the biggest scoop. days ago they suspected governor bush will run. their tell tell clue, they reported jeb bush lost 15 pounds that tipped the scales for that paper. now the miami herald can pull its reporter off the weight beat and put him on the race for 2016 beat. his family is not running. this is about jeb bush and likewise, we should not penalize governor bush because is he a b

he's a very, very capable young man. >> jeb bush's older brother george w. e it clear he wants jeb to run. last week he had this to say about his brother's possible run. >> you've often referred to bill clinton and talk about his relationship with your father and your mother and he's your brother from another mother. what does that make hillary clinton to the bush family? >> my sister-in-law. >> interesting. do you think your brother could run against your sister-in-law. >> yeah and i think he'd beater. >> do you? >> i do. >> she's formidable. >> no question so he is though. >> so you would take that bet. >> absolutely. >> well here's a statistic, republicans haven't won a republican election with bush on the ticket since 1972. this has other presidential hopefuls taking stock mainly in the lone star state of texas. ted cruz from texas is considering a presidential run. this guy has already come up with what is a very unique campaign strategy. the national review reports this. with a strategy like this we could sure count on the republican primy season being

don't worry, in terms of democrats being afraid of jeb bush, we're not afraid of jeb bush. republicans have their own problem with jeb bush. >> chris, this represents true transparency, something president obama ran on and honesty. he was intimate with his constituents and respectfully disagreed with them and explained why. he can make a strong stand and shows leadership. and that's what we need today. i think that jeb bush throwing his hat in the ring will not divide the republican party. there was a poster out, julie, that president george w. bush had, miss me yet? yes, because they showed true leadership and we have a president now -- >> you bring up immigration and that is a devicive issue, bush became a major advocate for immigration reform, his wife was mexican, lived in the state of florida, many cubans that live in the southern part of the state. kept getting re-elected. it's a republican state. that says a lot especially to those legal immigrants voting for him that clearly stand strong about illegal immigration in this country and they are here the way it should h

jeb bush is in the race for president.le the other hopefuls are milling around and talking up their chances and selling themselves, the former florida governor has entered the starting gate. his ears perked for the starting gun. this is a game-changer today. and declaring that he will actively explore a presidential run he's made himself the third bush to put himself in line for the presidency. the only thing keeping him from the white house now is a candidate who's not yet entered the race, either another republican or democrat hillary clinton. a number of the potential republicans may have been scratched from the race by the mere fact of jeb bush entering it today. i think of mitt romney whose best argument for running was if jeb decided not to. same for chris christie who has enough baggage from the bridge mischief. the announcement today jeb bush has taken a first step gives this race a shape it doesn't have just yesterday. it's now bush against the hard right. and a bush in the race ahead of a clinton. michael steele

jeb bush has typically been at the front of the gop contender's pack in the pole polls. here's what rand paul had to say about the bush announcement? >> why is jeb bush out ahead of you? >> well, maybe he has more ground he needs to gaeven? he has been out for a while. maybe he needs to get back in and practice up a bit. i can't determine what other people, i just know what i'm going to do. >> still six months out? >> yes. >> so in a new poll, 71% of voters say they want the next president to have a different approach than president obama. voters have a slight edge when asked which party they prefer to win the white house? jeb bush is roughly in line with other gop contenders, when vetters are asked if they could support his candidacy. both democrats and republicans, 31% of voters say they could back a bush run. 57% said they could not. now on the democratic side of things, hillary clinton has a much more advantage. half of the voeters say they could see themselves supporting the former secretary of state. the vice president coming in 2nd with 29%. so this brings us to ou

>> absolutely, jeb bush has two mitt romney problems. one come in the piece in "business week" it takes a look at the fact -- my cowriter, talented, financial. he has opened three funds, including 13 weeks ago. not the action that you would take. they said are you running for president of trying to get rich? the other problem, with barclays, you don't want to be associated with private equity, and certainly not a scandal-plagued bank like our clays -- like barclays. stepping down makes that story, hopefully for bush, a little tougher for journalists like us. >> one of the most striking things in the week of this story is mitt romney being quoted in politico saying, you think i have a problem with this, wait until you see would jeb bush is doing with barclays. >> mitt romney came out and said, "i'm worried about --" supposedly, "i'm more jeb bush has a private equity problem." >> first you are saying that vladimir putin is a hairless bear and now you're comparing mitt romney to a big hairy troll. this is a very vivid episode. >> send all

the other part of the news jeb bush will release an ebook, that's how governor bush wants to run thepaign. mike murphy wants him to be disruptive if he runs and that means being on the web in a savvy way, publishing ebooks, being out there in policy. this to me is jeb bush gearing up. >> that's been a big question for jeb bush who hasn't run in more than a decade. can he adapt his personal style, he's a policy guy and also has some fights with his own base over immigration and education, but can he adapt his ways to the new world of politics? >> absolutely. this was an attempt to draw a contrast with the rest of the field as you point out clinton and also christie and show not only does he not have anything to hide but wants to put forward big ideas. it was beg, hairy awedicious goals, bhags was the acronym. if you think about it, if hillary clinton gets into the race which we expect she will and jeb gets into the race it will be a throwback, a clinton against a bush once again so that's an irony here. he is trying to be a new disruptive candidate but in a lot of ways this would be a

he can't compete against jeb bush.rked with marco in talib ha. >> he is ready for primetime. >> not yet. he needs to sit this one out. >> mitch do you think christie has put the bridge gate stuff behind him? >> i think he has to an extent. the problem is, he had a certain brand which he is sticking to but he has kind of pmarred that brand. have to score early in the prima primary. got to score against jeb early. >> thank you to all of you. especially to you, people have no idea what is it took to get you here. >> with the traffic. i actually went over the georgia washington bridge to get here today. >> merry christmas to all of you. >>> new coming up, "the interview" release. they're gonna do it! they challenge us. they take us to worlds full of heroes and titans. for respawn, building the best interactive entertainment begins with the cloud. this is "titanfall," the first multi-player game built and run on microsoft azure. empowering gamers around the world to interact in ways they never thought possible. this cloud t

party stronger but is the republican party now where the democrat party was in 2008 and looking at jeb bushnd saying, yeah, we respect you, but to carry the banner forward having lost five of the last six popular votes -- >> "the wall street journal" said jed bush is a strong candidate. he's got part of the establishment right. i think republicans like ted cruz and rand paul are going to attack him. democrats are going to say, oh my god, we can't let jeb bush get ahead. those attacks from his rivals some elements from the right rush limbaugh and others, they are going to make donors say you know what? this is the strongest guy we have. i think republicans are going to have to figure out a way to taken down early, or he may get a head of steam and become the defective front runner by june. >> the other argument is that -- is the one that mitt romney is making in private, the clot -- the quote. if you thought bain was a problem for me, let's talk about barclays with jeb bush. nobody wants to relive mitt romney in 2012. >> it will be a pure likability issue, not a nomination issue. attacking b

match mitt romney up against jeb bush. mitt romney was doubling him up a month ago. bush was running in third place. the defeated candidate from 2012 running way ahead of jeb bush. this new poll this week, they didn't even include romney. i don't know if romney is going to run. i doubt it. did you i would love to see how romney is zoing right now. these are all the national polls in the last few months that match up mitt romney, jeb bush, chris christie, sort of the three big hitters on the republican side. look at this. every single one of these polls shows mitt romney beating jeb bush winning by 9, by 5, by 8. this idea that he has suddenly surged to the front of the pack, i'm not buying it. we don't have the numbers to back that up right now. why he might be struggling like this, i think we can put it in some perspective. let's go back to the 2000 presidential cycle. he was trying to do then at roughly at this point in the 2000 campaign cycle, this is early 1999, you look a national poll, a favorable impression of george w. bush, 60 to 8. this is among all voters.

you're seeing jeb bush at the top of this poll.ut we could see a half dozen candidates leading a poll in iowa before they settle on a nominee. there are a lot of good candidates. there were a bunch of folks that popped up but none had the strength to take him out. someone like jeb bush has a shot at the nomination, but you could see him fading very quickly. we could see anyone from mike huckabee to marco rubio to ted cruz either nationally or in iowa. i wouldn't count out chris christie, it's a wide open field with a bunch of candidates who could be strong or turn out to be not so good on the national stage. >> you mentioned new jersey governor chris christie he's ten points behind jeb bush in this poll. you think it's possible that he might make some headway and jump to the -- become the leader of the pack? >> i think there's a real chance of it. it depends on how jeb bush does. a lot of this does come down to who is in and who is out. if jeb bush isn't in, then chris christie is in pretty good position. both would have a shot at

jeb bush speaks spanish, lives in a state that has a huge latino pop lair, diverse from all over thehe disagrees with his base on the issue of whether it's a path to legal status or citizenship, now to be fair to the governor, he thinks president obama was wrong to use executive action to grant status to people, but listen to him here saying i'm willing to run against my party in some ways on this issue. >> you have to protect the borders, enforce the law, be respectful of the rule of law, and at the same time be able to encourage young aspirational people to come to our country. it's a win-win. i have no problems advancing your idea. >> and the base disagrees. >> we'll see, if i run, we'll see. >> we will, won't we? >> it's a personal issue for governor bush. his formidable experience was going to mexico as a young man, he met his wife there. worked in the early part of his business career in latin america, fluent in spanish. it's a matter of not just the head, but the heart for him. it presents a really serious challenge. he's going to have to navigate with extreme caution. on this

jeb bush had to know this was coming. he was working there when they had to pay a $300 million fine. his signature issue is the embargo in cuba. but right out of the gaet, his first day of actively exploring of running for president, he runs right smack into that wall. people say that jeb bush is the new mitt romney. people who hate the idea say that, too. so far, at least he is proving it. when i crave a smoke that's all i crave. that's where this comes in. only nicorette gum has patented dual-coated technology for great taste. plus nicorette gum gives you intense craving relief. and that helps put my craving in its place. that's why i only choose nicorette. dave, i'm sorry to interrupt... i gotta take a sick day tomorrow. dads don't take sick days, dads take nyquil. the nighttime, sniffling, sneezing, coughing, aching, fever, best sleep with a cold, medicine. sssessingses the conference call. the ultimate arena for business. hour after hour of diving deep, touching base, and putting ducks in rows. the only problem with

bush, are you supporting jeb bush? >> i'm sitting on the sidelines. i do know this from my association with the bushes. he said i will not make a decision -- i was at the beginning the one employee of the bush prepresidential campaign, our chairman was james a. baker iii, a young houston attorney. but the senior bush said, i'm not going to make a decision until after the 1978 election. and he didn't. then george bush said i won't make a decision after the 1998 election. and it wasn't until the time between christmas and new year's that he went away and made the decision. if jeb bush says i'm not going to make a decision until after the first of the year, we won't have a final decision until after the first of the year regardless of whether he did a leadership pac today. >> this is what he had to say that he won't change his views if he's going to run for the primary. >> if i was to run, i would try to persuade people -- i won't change what i believe. my beliefs, i think, are good, solid, mainstream conservative thought. winning with purpose, winning wi

a dallas cowboys fan, it certainly helps to be in that box filled with billionnaires, coming up, jeb bush may be running for president and casey hutton joins us with her reporting on jeb's potential gop opponents. >> that will be very interesting. stay with us. h him. >> i haven't committed to doing it, but this is a time we should be celebrating the incredible opportunities in this country. yet, most people don't feel it. they think the government doesn't work for them and if i can get comfortable with being a candidate that gets people hope that we can fix some of these big problems that we have, so we can take advantage of our opportunities, that's what i'm pursueing. it's not an easy decision, though, it is a life changing one for a long while. >> howard dean, you know something about that. it's not an easy decision. not an easy task. >> jeb bush on the speaking circuit, i think he's a changed guy, he is less likely to do it because i'm a right wenger, he is not. his immigration policy is in the bush mode, pretty decent i disagree with him on a lot of issues. he's a different guy tan

i was just in south carolina, talked to sources on the ground who were paying attention to jeb bush's speech. they're saying, it's possible this state isn't the same state that cent george bush over the hurdle against john mccain . that could be a problem for bush in the long run. >> michelle, what do you think about that and what is the impact of people like rush limbaugh coming out strongly against jeb? >> well, look, this last election was the establishment reasserting itself to say, hey, we're not going to stand back and become a party of fringe candidates. so jeb will have some trouble in the primary because not such on immigration, but also on common core. this is something that makes the base down right crazy. they will go berserk about this sort of thing. so it will be interesting to see how he asserts himself and handles these particular issues. while at the same time, not alienating or turning away from his stands on these. he can't just flip flop. >> but jep bush talked earlier this month about how republicans should approach 2016. i want to play that, kasie. >> i kind of k

you're close to jeb bush and close to marco rubio. er one getting out yet putting in a little bit of a tough position but did it surprise you that jeb got into this so early? >> actually it didn't and the reason it didn't is because he has been telling us for the longest time that he set a time line for himself for the end of the year, and this is one of the things that you learn about jeb bush. he says what he means. he means what he says. he had his process. he thought about the factors and he's decided to move on to this new stage by the time line that he set for himself. >> bill kristol, we had gotten these rumbles before his announcement that a lot of the big republican money people were trying to coalesce behind a single candidate. it seemed like bush was trying to get out there and say i'm the guy early on. did it make a difference? did it freeze people? >> we'll see. i think -- if he was going to run which i guess he is he was smart to go early, i think and not look coy and wink, wink, nod, nod. he has to get out there and try

jeb bush is also the chairman of two other multimillion dollar funds. here's the key line from the story -- "jeb bush's flurry avengers does not suggest anyone preparing to run for president." the story also suggests jeb bush might have a mitt romney problem because of all the overseas ties he has through these investment vehicles. a lot of supporters are saying he does not have a mitt romney problem but a lot of those people thought mitt romney did not have a mitt romney problem. does this story, a major exclusive, show the dimensions of jeb bush's experience and what does it say about his chances in 2016? >> there is a technical thing with some of these investment vehicles whether he is a key man, meaning that he can walk away from this, and he is not apparently designating himself a key man, so he could walk away from them. some investors would be upset, thinking they had invested in a jeb bush vehicle. we both cover 2012 carefully and went through a lot of stuff related to debate and capital. sometimes there was real stuff there and sometimes there

why jeb bush is thinking of running? i'll give you, including the fact that he may actually want to be president. but he's also being looked at as a savior by the big money donor class and the consultant class, the establishment of the party to head off the tea party. they're going to pull out all the stops to make sure that a tea party type conservative doesn't get the nomination. >> joining me now, a former speech writer for george w. bush and senior editor for the atlantic magazine. and e.j. di onne for "the washington post" and msnbc political analyst. the good news for jeb bush is that rush limbaugh is against him. and in the past at this stage of republican campaigns, rush limbaugh is always against the person who ends up geing the nomination. >> well, look, i come from the more moderate side of the party and i welcome people who are going to reinforce that. and i welcome jeb bush's policy chops. he's got deep policy knowledge and that's important. i think, though, there are going to be a lot of concern, not just f

we know jeb bush is not afraid of chris christie. his chris christie intimidated by jeb bush?> i honestly have no idea. they exist in the same lane and bracket of the republican primary. mainstream, center-right candidates. christie was the biggest player in that lane. jeb is possibly entering it. it is definitely a challenge. >> paul ryan might run, yes or no? >> might run? yes. that is not exactly news. >> dan senor thank you. tribute to stephen colbert. ♪ >> 110th street is considered the beginning of the end. stephen colbert, the most successful parody in television history, is dying. there is a week-long obituary being written on bloomberg.com. >> i'm standing outside the 54th street studio of the colbert report, where it will go to dark this week to prepare for stephen colbert to take over for david letterman. colbert has been more of a whimsical satirist than eightn angry -- than an angry activist. truthiness. his ability to explain orwellian language from the beginning first episode. >> anyone can read the news to you. i promise to feel the news at you. >> corresponden

i will have tremendous respect for jeb bush.he runs, he will be a very credible and strong candidate. >> marco rubio for senator, thanks for coming on "meet the press." >> it was a big hint that he is more likely to run than not. 2016, is the coverage going to be all about the cable cat nip of jeb versus hillary. i will be back with the nerd screen to explain. those primaries are going to be tumultuous. you can get out of the c-max hybrid. it's about how much life you can fit into it. ♪ the ford c-max hybrid. with an epa-estimated range of 540 miles on a tank of gas. and all the room you need to enjoy the trip. go stretch out. go further. that's all i crave.e that's where this comes in. only nicorette gum has patented dual-coated technology for great taste. plus nicorette gum gives you intense craving relief. and that helps put my craving in its place. that's why i only choose nicorette. i'm the prothreed of messy kids they get stains like you wouldn't believe. this tide ultra stain release and zap!cap helps me get out pretty mu

but as everyone knows who is thinking of jeb bush possibly running and contemplating it he will have trouble in two key areas. one is immigration and a supporter of comprehensive immigration bill and the second is common core, which some see as too much of a naturalization of the education system. those are the two issues he will have to win over conservatives on if he enters the race. as you mention, it looks like he is leaning towards that way at this point. >> what do you think, jamie, if it does happen? what do you think a jeb bush for president will mean for other republicans who have desires of becoming a commander in chief? >> well, there's a good question of what will happen to marco rubio. marco rubio is also considering a run, as well. most people you talked to in the donor class do not believe that both jeb bush and marco rubio will run because they're both from florida. if jeb entered the race you would think that marco rubio would not enter the race. probably also hamper chris christie a little bit because they're seen as both drawing from the same base, kind of that, wh

jeb bush was here for cory gardner, and hillary clinton was here for udall. e point i'm trying to make is bush has already flip-flopped on immigration because was totally against any kind of immigration reform here in colorado. i think that's why cory gardner won. host: we're talking about immigration. we'll show this headline from the hill newspaper from just yesterday, immigration action jolts the 2016 raise. guest: we're still looking at an election cycle where we don't know what the main topic of conversation is going to be. we're coming off of multiple elections where economy and jobs have been the main talking point and the main concern for voters, not that the economy is rebounding. we're seeing it move in a very positive direction. it's unclear what is going to be the driving issue. immigration is one of those issues that could rise to the forefront of the conversation. and the trick for both parties in the next couple of years in congress is going to be laying out some sort of policy platform for their party's candidates come 2016. republicans will ha
