Mr. Vance is by far the most impressive candidate in the race. He has been a distinguished criminal and civil trial lawyer and comes across as a person of quiet competence and reflection. It is unfortunate that in today's electrified atmosphere, shrillness and zealotry are too often equated with a passion for justice. The Manhattan DA's office is a virtual mini-army with approximately 500 lawyers and many more support staff. It is best led not by a Crusader Rabbit type hell-bent on seeking out wrongdoing and holding incessant press conferences but rather by a public servant dedicated to the responsible, objective and deliberative pursuit of lawbreakers.
