My Take
What strikes me about John Avlon is the rare combination of writing chops and institutional leadership. Going from Yale to columnist at The New York Sun, then editor-in-chief of The Daily Beast, and finally a CNN anchor shows someone who can both craft an argument and run a newsroom. His stint as Rudy Giuliani's chief speechwriter is the detail I keep coming back to: he learned politics from inside the machine, which is why his commentary lands with more weight than the usual shouting heads. I value pundits who choose their words carefully, and Avlon reads to me like a genuine craftsman of language.
