But really, is this a sufficient leadership test? I mean, come on, I wanna know which candidate is ready for the 3 a.m. call on DAY ONE. Or the 2:30 a.m. call the night BEFOREe day one.

Who's ready to take The Call on his or her CELL PHONE?! What will he or she do when he or she doesn't recognize the caller ID? With an Afghanistan area code?! Which one will just get pissed and hit "ignore?" I mean, these are questions that must be asked. Hopefully, LONG before whatever happens in Pennsylvannia changes the world as we know it.
