>>Obama's favorite TV series is The Wire. His favorite character is
>>Omar, the coal-black antihero who prowls the streets of West
>>Baltimore toting a shotgun and robbing drug dealers.

This is ironic because the Carcetti character could have been written with Obama in mind, notwithstanding that he's a white politician in a majority black city. I wonder what O made of that storyline.
