Kenneth Adelman, a former Presidential advisor who was the author of the story that the troops in Iraq would be greeted by children throwing flowers and sweets, has endorsed Barack Obama.

What's interesting is that Adelman, whose own judgment may be said to be somewhat suspect, criticizes McCain's judgment for choosing Sarah Palin. The last part of the article is somewhat curious:

Reading through this, he suspects, as do I, that Obama's posturing is nothing more than a play to the left wing and that he will be more "sensible" once in office. He feels that's a good thing.... I have yet to see any signs of Obama's judgment, grasp of issues or anything other than an ability to mount a slick marketing campaign and deliver a good prepared speech off a teleprompter or when being fed softball questions to allow him to expound his talking points.I sure hope Obama is more open, centrist, sensible—dare I say, Clintonesque—than his liberal record indicates, than his cooperation with Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid portends. If not, I will be even more startled by my vote than I am now.
