Gloria Estefan did a puffy interview (“I have a very important question to start off this interview, which chimney will Santa be coming down?”) with Obama for Univision. Ben Smith snarks: “She didn’t manage to ask about the new immigration reform legislation, and indeed, with questions like these, who needs answers.”

OK, sure, chuckle, celebrity interview, yeah. But dude. Your colleagues ask softer questions of Dick Cheney, and let him have his way with the historical record without pressing him on it. Ben is, by far, one of the good ones at Politico, but mote-in-your-neighbor’s-eye and all that.

…Oh, wait, is that a Dropdead song? I meant to post the “Get On Your Feet” video, I promise.
