The question is not "is he smart enough?", but rather "is he smarter than the last guy?".

Obama's come into a pretty nasty set of circumstances. Now we do indeed see if he can manage them. But I don't think his intelligence is the issue. With his lack of experience, as much as I do like him, he really is a black box. We shall see.

Sometimes I wonder if smartness is really the important thing. Perhaps more importantly, is he enough of a leader? Is he charismatic enough? Is he enough of a diplomat?

I am hopeful the answer to all those questions is YES
