Character matters, but more so does consistency, fairness and most of all: a command of the relevant issues that will make or break the organization that he/she will administer.
Not sure why "consistency and fairness" fall outside the definition of "character." Especially consistency. I wouldn't mind a candidate with steady principles who isn't going to turn on a dime if the polls start to look bad.
There are plenty of "effective administrators" who have no character. Maybe some people here have worked for them.
Just out of curiosity, which titan of intellect do you plan to vote for on the Democratic side? You think Hillary has a firm "command of the relevant issues?" Did you hear her on Pakistan? How about Obama's command of the relevant issues? Bringing up economic knowledge and policies in this context would be too damn easy.
