The "character" thing


Mixed feelings or fixed results

"I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character."
— Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr.

Now I've made no secret about what I think of John McCain. If I had my way, he would be arrested and tried for treason immediately.

But Barack Obama, there we have a character issue aside from his politics. There are the questionable associations. There's the bit about Jeremiah Wright. There's the near draconian demands that his personal life is off limits to the press.

I will give him credit for declaring that speculation about a candidate's family should be forbidden. But a part of me has to wonder, given what little has trickled out so far, is it really a matter of character or is Obama just worried about what the press may find out about him?
