QotD: Bigger than a bread box

You might think the following quote comes from the keyboard of a right-wing blogger. Nope. While not directly from the horse's mouth, it comes from another horse of like stripe. Same stable.

In his memoirs, Senate Majority Leader, Harry Reid, recounts commenting on a speech by the then freshman senator from Illinois (here).
"'That speech was phenomenal, Barack,' I told him. And I will never forget his response. Without the barest hint of braggadocio or conceit, and with what I would describe as deep humility, he said quietly:

"'I have a gift, Harry.'"
Ahh. So that's it.
