Never! Krauthammer supported McCain: McCain for President By Charles Krauthammer Friday, October 24, 2008 Charles saw through the Obama flim-flam from the start. Who do you want answering that phone at 3 a.m.? A man who's been cramming on these issues for the past year, who's never had to make an executive decision affecting so much as a city, let alone the world? A foreign policy novice instinctively inclined to the flabbiest, most vaporous multilateralism (e.g., the Berlin Wall came down because of "a world that stands as one"), and who refers to the most deliberate act of war since Pearl Harbor as "the tragedy of 9/11," a term more appropriate for a bus accident? Or do you want a man who is the most prepared, most knowledgeable, most serious foreign policy thinker in the United States Senate? A man who not only has the best instincts but has the honor and the courage to, yes, put country first, as when he carried the lonely fight for the surge that turned Iraq from catastrophic defeat into achievable strategic victory? There's just no comparison. Obama's own running mate warned this week that Obama's youth and inexperience will invite a crisis -- indeed a crisis "generated" precisely to test him. Can you be serious about national security and vote on Nov. 4 to invite that test? washingtonpost.com

I heard him say on the television show that he supported Obama over McCain in '08 It was on the old Brit Hume Show. I was amazed at the time. The more recent comments (claims) are that he supported McCain but questioned Palin's credentials. So, even if my hearing has gone that far south, his non-support for Palin during the election was no different than not supporting mcCain. I have heard him say on more than one occasion, that Palin lacks creds to be president( and I guess, VP) since he did not support her. Like nearly all media types, his critique of Obama qualifications pre-election was non existent. Of course, he has been very vocal against Obama in the past six months or more. I like Krauthammer and enjoy his monologues.
