Presidential campaigns may be in some ways little more than glorified stress tests, not true measures of the potential for presidential greatness. Still, they do offer significant peeks into personal character. Obama "does not get rattled," says Bhowmik. "I've never seen it." He has "grace under fire." In the coming campaign, he will need it.

In an email to Newsweek Editor Jon Meacham on Sunday, McCain adviser Mark Salter responded to this week's cover story.

    Hey, get a load of this.

    Today, FoxNews owner Rupert Murdoch ENDORSED OBAMA. Murdoch says that even though he is a Republican and an arch-conservative, he can't possibly vote for McCain, since McCain is "very weak on the economy."

    RUPERT MURDOCH PREDICTED THAT OBAMA WILL WIN.

    RUPERT MURDOCH IS VOTING FOR OBAMA.

    Imagine if FoxNews stops bashing Obama, and begins to support him.


    In related news, WARREN BUFFETT, Chairman of Berkshire Hathaway and the richest man in the world, came out in support of Obama recently. Mr. Buffett said that although he admires Hillary Clinton and has supported her in the past, he feels that Senator Obama will do the most good for America, and positively charge the economy.


    Warren Buffett and Rupert Murdoch are worlds apart in terms of political ideas, but they each know all there is to know about the economy. They are both wealthy investors and businessmen, and they both know that only Obama has was it takes to turn the around the recession.
