What kind of a President

will we have? Increasingly, that's the most important question in both parties.

On the Republican side, will they pick the uber-panderer Mitt Romney or the nearly-straight arrow McCain?

On the Democratic side, what started as questions about experience and details on issues has blown up into a test on the character issue. In today's NYT Bob Herbert sums up what the campaign has become, and who's responsible. And at the present, the issue is what kind of person Democrats want in the White House.

After Clinton agreed to not campaign in Michigan, and after Edwards and Obama took their names off the ballot in reliance, Clinton now advocates for counting the Michigan delegates. Character is indeed an issue in this race.
