Jeb Bush says he won't run for Senate in 2010

By Bill Cotterell
Florida Capital Bureau Political Editor

Former Gov. Jeb Bush announced today he won't run for the U.S. Senate in 2010.

"While the opportunity to serve my state and country during these turbulent and
dynamic times is compelling, now is not the right time to return to elected office," Bush said in a prepared statement issued from his Miami office.

"In the coming months and years, I hope to play a constructive role in the future of the Republican Party, advocating ideas and policies that solve the pressing problems of our day," Bush said. "We must rebuild the Party by focusing on the common purposes and core conservative principles that unite us all – limited government, a strong national defense and safe homeland and the protection of liberty tempered by personal responsibility."

U.S. Sen. Mel Martinez announced late last year he would not seek re-election. Bush, who was governor from 1999 to 2007, was considering another statewide race -- and widely considered a shoo-in for the GOP nomination, if he wanted it.
