Obama’s Speechwriter

I like this article from Sunday’s Times about Obama’s 26-year-old speechwriter, and not just because he’s cute.

When Mr. Obama’s White Sox swept Mr. Favreau’s beloved Red Sox three games to none in their American League 2005 division series, the senator walked over to his speechwriter’s desk with a little broom and started sweeping it off.

(OK, I just realized I’ve linked to New York Times articles in my last three posts. Need more sources!)
