Emily, you and Michelle Obama aren't the only ones who love The Brady Bunch. As I read that nugget in Jodi Kantor's New York Times story this morning, I couldn't help thinking about another politician with a Brady connection.
Allow me to quote from that oracle of our modern age, Wikipedia. This is from the entry on Louisiana's current governor:
According to family lore, Jindal adopted the name "Bobby" from the character Bobby Brady after watching The Brady Bunch television series at age four. He has been known by that name ever since-as a civil servant, politician, student,and writer--though legally his name remains Piyush Jindal.
C'mon, John McCain, please name Gov. Bobby Jindal to be your running mate!
