Quote of the Day

David Brooks, of The New York Times, waxing rhapsodic about the emerging style of the Republican Party's candidates:

The quintessential New Republican is detail-oriented, managerial, tough-minded, effective but a little dry. If Whitman wins her race, she’ll fit right in.

BTW, Brooks thinks Mitch Daniels, governor of Indiana, is the most likely Republican presidential nominee for 2012.
