“Character is destiny”

David Brooks, the remarkably insightful author and New York Times columnist, was a fellow passenger on the Straight Talk Express on Saturday. Here is David’s report in which he concludes:

Everyone will make their own political choices, and you might plausibly argue that the qualities John McCain possesses are not the ones the country now requires. But character is destiny, and you will never persuade me that he is not among the finest of men.

UPDATE: Blogger and McCain supporter Brad Marston was also on the bus. He reports McCain’s comments about prioritizing the threats to our national security and Iraq.
