Obama is Santos is Obama
West Wing helped keep the Bush years from shriveling my hope to the size of a tick carcass by reminding me that government could — at least in some alternative universe — be smart, fact-based, principled, and for the people. So, of course Obama’s rise has reminded me and millions of other West Wing fans of the Matt Santos (= Jimmy Smits) campaign in the last season.
Now it turns out (according to the Guardian) that the West Wing writers based Santos on Obama, at least to some degree.
Go Santos Obama!
