CONCORD,
N.H. — Likely Republican presidential contender Jeb Bush is calling on
the U.S. Senate to confirm attorney general nominee Loretta Lynch.
Bush
appeared Thursday at the Concord City Republican Committee's "Politics
and Pies" event at the Concord Snowshoe Club. He is in New Hampshire for
a series of events, including a summit that will bring together more
than a dozen potential 2016 contenders.
Lynch was nominated by President Barack Obama in November, but Senate Republicans have delayed a confirmation vote.
Bush
said presidents should have the right to pick their teams, adding that
Lynch's conformation would at least speed up the departure of current
Attorney General Eric Holder.
