a candidate after my own heart

I'm lifting this verbatim from http://defectiveyeti.com/ (a blog I love)

==================================

In a speech recently, Obama said the following:

"We cannot prevail until we reduce our commitment in Iraq, which will allow us to do what I called for last August: providing at least two additional combat brigades to support our efforts in Afghanistan. This increased commitment in turn can be used to leverage greater assistance--with less, uh, fewer restrictions--from our NATO allies."

Whoa, nice on-the-fly less/fewer correction there, smart guy. Possibly staged to sew up the grammarian vote, I concede, but even that possibility is kind of endearing.

==================================

Being a former editor and (technical) writer, he is truly a candidate after my own heart.

I totally agree, girlcarew! A man with good grammar is sooooooooooooo appealing!! They are few and far between these days (except for all the guys on Humzoo, of course!).
