Throwing in the Towel?

Is Charles Krauthammer calling it for Obama? Sure sounds like it:

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.

Emphasis mine. Call me an elitist all you want, but that’s always been Obama’s appeal to me, especially when contrasted with the folksy “average Joe” demeanor of George W. Bush. I don’t ever want to feel like I can drink a beer with the President of the United States. Ever.
