Default Executive Intelligence

My father once related to me an article he read that the most effective executives/leaders have an IQ of about 120. They're smart, but not so smart that they see too much and get mired down in making too many decisions/etc. (I suppose I should try and locate the article)

So, is it possible for an executive to be TOO smart? Is it preferable to have a Ronald Reagan or George W. Bush instead of a Teddy Roosevelt or Thomas Jefferson?

Anyway, discuss.
