Gave me a big smile even before my coffee.
From the CoS archive, July 2004:
Speaking to the Illinois delegation breakfast, U.S. Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D.-Evanston) recalled a meeting she and other lawmakers had with President Bush in the White House in February.
As they were leaving, Schakowsky said, she pulled on her coat and Bush "literally jumped back and looked stricken" when he saw the "Obama" button.
Shakowsky said she explained that it wasn't Osama but Obama, and that he was running in the U.S. Senate primary in Illinois.
Bush said, "I don't know him," according to Schakowsky.
"I said, `Oh, you will, Mr. President,'" she said.
