Given how much many Americans and people around the world loathed Bush Jr, it wouldn't surprise me at all.

It's not implausible to me that there was poisoning--look what happened to Yushchenko.
Of course, more concrete evidence would be necessary to substantiate such a claim.
This much is more certain, however: Laura Bush's statement that U.S. intelligence doesn't know if other delegations were affected is ridiculous. Surely they checked into that.
This kind of false naiveté smacks of a publisher (and complicit celebrity author) trying to create a buzz with a "what if" tag, and hoping the story will be "sexier" and sell more if speculation is fueled.

Well, she could use some "sexy", apparently the deal for the memoir wasn't quite what they expected to fill the ol' coffers:
