>From the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, which endorsed Obama on 10/12/2008:

Over the past nine months, Mr. Obama, the junior senator from
Illinois, has emerged as the only truly transformative candidate in
the race. In the crucible that is a presidential campaign, his
intellect, his temperament and equanimity under pressure consistently
have been impressive. He has surrounded himself with smart, capable
advisers who have helped him refine thorough, nuanced policy
positions.

In a word, Mr. Obama has been presidential.

Meanwhile, Mr. McCain, the senior senator from Arizona, became the
incredible shrinking man. He shrank from his principled stands in
favor of a humane immigration policy. He shrank from his universal
condemnation of torture and his condemnation of the politics of smear.

He even shrank from his own campaign slogan, "Country First," by
selecting the least qualified running mate since the Swedenborgian
shipbuilder Arthur Sewall ran as William Jennings Bryan's No. 2 in
1896.
