Rush Limbaugh Has Explanation for Jeb Bush's Poor Poll Showing

Rush Limbaugh may have the most plausible explanation for Jeb Bush's dismal showing in a hypothetical race against President Barack Obama.

A new poll from Fox News shows Obama routing the former Florida governor 54-34 in a 2012 matchup. The results puzzled those who assume Bush the Younger could be a strong GOP contender ... if he would only run.

But conservative radio talk-show host Limbaugh dissed Bush on Monday, saying the former governor's squishiness on immigration and social issues doesn't inspire the Republican base.

Limbaugh said GOP candidates dismiss social and Christian conservatives at their peril.

Besides, he asked, "When does the left ever give up on their social issues?" Answer: Never.

Another plausible explanation: Voters are just Bushed.
