Which is saying something because he has so much to offer. He has always struck me as the kind of guy who knows when (and how) to relax but, when there's something worth fighting for, you're not going to find a more intense or committed leader. But that's just behavioral; he's also immensely talented and personally appealing to those he works with (i.e. McCain and how he turned him around 180 degrees on the POW-MIA project), not least because he is so human(e). These people are very rare.
