The Krauthammer Article Heard 'Round the Web

This article from conservative journalist Charles Krauthammer has been passed along vie email and networking sites for the past few days. While it's certainly no ringing endorsement of Obama, it is clearly a reality-check for the McCain campaign.
"Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr. famously said of Franklin Roosevelt that he had a "second-class intellect, but a first-class temperament." Obama has shown that he is a man of limited experience, questionable convictions, deeply troubling associations (Jeremiah Wright, William Ayers, Tony Rezko) and an alarming lack of self-definition -- do you really know who he is and what he believes? Nonetheless, he's got both a first-class intellect and a first-class temperament. That will likely be enough to make him president."
