One of the Clinton Campaign's ridiculous attacks of late has been that Barack Obama was not really a professor of constitutional law at the University of Chicago but merely a "lecturer." They have accused him of being "misleading" by saying he was a professor. Because "details matter."

(Um, how about the completely fabricated details of HRC's trip to Bosnia? Nevermind.)

Well, details do matter. Yesterday the U of C was apparently happy to clarify that Obama was, of course, a professor at the law school.

Which reminded me that I've been curious for awhile about what his former students might have to say about him as a teacher. We've heard very little about this side of the candidate. Should I not be surprised that it's a chapter in his career that the media doesn't much seem to care about?

Then I stumbled across this Chicago Sun-Times article.
