So I'm watching the Presidential press conference, and as they pan across the room, I see Rahm Emanuel at the back of the room, arms crossed, one finger across his mouth, slightly smiling as he watches the President. Immediately, I think of Leo watching President Bartlett knock it out of the park. I decide to go look up Emanuel so I can actually identify his job-- he's the White House Chief of Staff, which I realised I had known, so perhaps my mental image was subconscious.

And then I come across this line:


Though executive producer Lawrence O'Donnell has denied it,[22] the character Josh Lyman in The West Wing is said to be based on Rahm Emanuel.[23][5]



I just have to laugh.

Yeah, they mentioned that a lot when they first made the announcement.

You've been busy. It's not hard to miss stuff when busy.
