Adult supervision

I often take exception to Joe Klein's political analysis and his Beltway wiseman tendency to complain when Democrats "hew too close to the party line" -- you expect him to start railing against the teachers' union at any moment. But during the campaign his reporting on his former hero, McCain, has been very good (so good, it got him kicked of the Straight Talk Tow Truck), and this commentary on why Obama is winning has some insight, especially his reporting on the candidate's meeting with Gen. Petraeus last spring.
