Jeb Bush, the former governor of Florida -- and the president's brother -- may be returning to politics.
Bush is eyeing a run to replace Florida Republican Sen. Mel Martinez, who announced on Tuesday that he will not seek reelection. In an e-mail sent Tuesday night, Bush told Politico, "I am considering it.”
Obviously, the Bush name is a liability in national politics these days. But the same isn't as true in Florida, where Jeb Bush remains popular, even if his brother isn't.
