Jeb Bush not really on Palin bandwagon

Former Gov. Jeb Bush (R-FL, brother of W.) doesn't make it sound like he's too keen on Sarah Palin as a presidential candidate, in a Newsmax interview:
My personal belief is that, for Governor Palin to be a successful candidate for higher office, she needs to take this charisma she has and add to it some depth of understanding of the complexity of life we’re living in today. [...]

I mean, I don’t know what her deal is, but my belief is in 2010 and 2012, public leaders need to have intellectual curiosity.
Unfortunately he did offer some praise in the interview, and he indicated that she has a (positive) role for the party's future more broadly, if not a presidential future.
