NYTimes columnist David Brooks endorses Obama over H-Bomb Clinton in his column today. He writes:

If Clinton were running against Obama for Senate, it would be easy to choose between them. But they are running for president, and the presidency requires a different set of qualities. Presidents are buffeted by sycophancy, criticism and betrayal. They must improvise amid a thousand fluid crises. They’re isolated and also exposed, puffed up on the outside and hollowed out within. With the presidency, character and self-knowledge matter more than even experience. There are reasons to think that, among Democrats, Obama is better prepared for this madness.

While it’s nice to have this tangible confirmation of Obama’s bipartisan appeal, should we be pleased by Smarmy McSmarmster’s endorsement?
