As you know, Rahm Emanuel appears to be Obama’s first choice for White House Chief of Staff.

Rahm and I attended the same college (though not in the same years) and the school’s alumnae publication once did a feature on the two of us (when he was working for Clinton and I was at the RNC).

Now for the punchline: The school we attended was Sarah Lawrence College, a fancy girls’ school.

You have to agree that any boy who goes to a girls’ school has an aptitude for strategic thinking.
