that is SO Obama

Apparently, Senator Barack Obama mentioned McFarquhar's New Yorker profile of him, "The Conciliator" (and gently corrected her characterization of him as such) at recent fundraiser. And I'm so glad there was someone there to blog about it, and put it in perspective, one Michael Dorf, Columbia Law Prof.

I haven't even read the profile yet. Or, rather, I started it and then Benj picked it up and so I heard about it second hand.
