(CNN) - President Bush was quick to endorse John McCain when the Arizona senator wrapped up his bid for the Republican presidential nomination.
But another Bush might not be so sure.
Speaking with CNN's Larry King Wednesday night, Jenna Bush said she hasn't decided yet who she will vote for in November.
"I don't know," Jenna Bush, daughter of President and Mrs. Bush, said when asked if she will back McCain.
"Of course [I am open]. I mean, who isn't open to learning about the candidates and I'm sure that everybody's like that," she added.
Though the younger Bush conceded she has "been too busy with books to really pay that much attention."
Meanwhile, mother Laura Bush was quick to affirm that she will be voting for the Republican candidate in the fall.
The two appeared on the show to discuss Jenna Bush's upcoming wedding next month.
"[It will be] outdoors, very small wedding, you 'know, very small, all relatives, our families, really, kind of big," Jenna Bush said. “So it's half-family and then half very close friends."

Jenna should vote for Hillary if she has any brains. Otherwise, stupid people can continue join the ranks of Obama and McCain.
Smart people vote for Hillary !!!!! Obama is a shameful fiasco.
Hillary '08
I don't like Bush, but I think it was very BRAVE of Jenna to say that she is not exactly the puppet her mother is, who hands down backed McCain while in the same breathe admitted to not following the primaries. Open-mindedness is what we need in this country. Thats the new generation we see coming up and voting for Obama.
Ashaki – Why are you talking about Chelsea? This article is about Jenna.
I saw the broadcast and boy did her mom look pissed. I am ambivalent between Obama and McCain but honest to God, this girl is a complete airhead who can't articulate herself, much like her father, and her endorsement would do more harm than good.
Wow, I think it would be nice to find out they actually back Senator Obama. But we would never find out the truth.
So is the wedding small or big? What is JB talking about here: "[It will be] outdoors, very small wedding, you 'know, very SMALL, all relatives, our families, really, kind of BIG,?" Only the shadow knows.

Now that your daddy has lead our country into a failed war and brought back the spectre of the Great Depression, it's probably good to go with someone whose mantra isn't "Stay the Course."...
And why do we need any Bush to endorse McCain. He is better off without those endorsements.
As most people her age, they have succumbed to the Obama Juice.
UT is not exactly a bastion of consevative values. So what can we expect from the indoctrination that she went through.
In the end it won't amount to a hill of beans, because McCain will beat anyone of the two Socialists running as Democrats.
It's so funny to read all the posts from pissed off Republicans.
"Who Cares!"
"Is this really news"
"Worthless article"
And elated Democrats.
"Good for you Jenna"
"Closet Obama supporter"
"She's smarter than her Father"
"[It will be] outdoors, very small wedding, you 'know, very small, all relatives, our families, really, kind of big," Jenna Bush said.
So, her wedding is going to be "very small" and "kind of big?" If she was saying that their families are kind of big, then CNN didn't review this article before posting it.
Smart choice
"[It will be] outdoors, very small wedding, you 'know, very small, all relatives, our families, really, kind of big,"
This is the most hilarious quote I've ever read. Which is it, Jenna? A "small" or a "big" wedding??
And why is this news? Jenna is no pundit, has no experience, and those of us who knew her during her antics in college really don't consider her political choices to be anything resembling astute. She's a private citizen. C'mon, CNN, you can do better.
Finally a Bush with some common sense!
I'm sure she'll vote for Nader.
And Barack's a relative too!
Here we go again. She is one of the smart republican. The man cannot even understand the economy how can he leads the nation. America be careful with John McCain because if he get elected he will ruin the country to a third world country.
Who cares who Jenna Bush is backing?
She should be supporting Obama. Obama has so much in common with her father. They are both arrogant windbags who don't have what it takes to run our nation.
If not Clinton – McCain in 08
. . . . That only means that she is voting for Senator Obama. Go Jenna.
Yes We Can.
Flip-Flop (very small, really kind of big) don't sound to smart to me,
must have been on the wrong side of the door with her dad when the
brains were handed out.
"very small, all relatives, our families, really, kind of big"... "So it's half-family and then half very close friends." ...huh? No wonder she doesn't know who to support... she probably doesn't even know who is running. And the Obama supporters here think that she "has brains"... is "brilliant"? LOL! Pathetic. Everyone immediately showers praise on anybody who supports their candidate, or in this case, just shows the slightest bit of hesitation before deciding on who she will vote for, as if it has any importance whatsoever. Sorry Obama supporters, I know Barrack has kept you in the clouds with his speeches about magic rays of sunshine, but any realist will tell you that this ditz will most likely vote for McCain in November. But no matter who she votes for, why would anybody be proud to get her support?
Daddy has something in common with his daughter. He's "been too busy with CROOKS to really pay that much attention."
Caption of picture says she may vote democrat – complete BS. She said she hasn't decided who she'll vote for because she hasn't been studying the issues.
CNN Spin, Spin you can count on!
too busy....
pffffffftt!
She just don't wanna dis her dad publicly....
Go Jenna the smart one in the family, hope you father and mother learn from you. You are example of new and improved generation. Change we can believe in stop the drama vote for Obama.
