interesting profile on Jeb written by a reporter (S.V.Date) who covered him for 8 years in Florida. The reporter does not agree with his politics, but clearly respects him:

The word “relentless” doesn’t begin to explain this Bush. I’ve yet to encounter any other politician as smart, as driven, as self-disciplined, as organized, as single-minded about his goals—or as certain about his views.

And when it came to dealing with the press corps, Bush wasn’t afraid to let that certainty shine through. He’s almost always the smartest guy in the room—and he made sure to remind us of that in news conference after news conference, eviscerating reporters who came unprepared or with wishy-washy questions.

personally, if it comes down to a choice between Jeb and Hilary in the White House, I would rather see Jeb get in.
