Thus sayeth the personal assistant to Barack Obama, via Hotline:
Obama’s campaign staff is competing in a $10 per person pool. Their picks? Bill Burton and Dan Pfeiffer both have Georgetown in the championship, but UCLA winning. Speechwriter Jon Favreau and Ben Finkenbinder have Kansas. Strategist David Axelrod and policy dir Heather Higginbottom picked UNC. And Obama Body Man Reggie Love has Duke, Louisville, Kansas, and Marquette in his final four (Wake-Up Call! reporting).
For those who think this is vain hoping, note that Reggie was previously a member of the 2005 ACC champion Duke Blue Devils.

As much as I like Marquette… I don’t think they are ready to be in the final four this year. They have to win the tough games like Georgetown to prove they are ready for it.
Jon Favreau? As in the guy that wrote “Swingers”?
Just checked. It’s a different guy. Go Marquette!
He was also in Rudy.
