Sen. Klobuchar's anecdote about Sen Schumer

Jeffrey Toobin has an interesting profile of Senator Charles Schumer (abstract only) in this week's New Yorker.  It includes the following anecdote from Amy Klobuchar:

A few years ago when Schumer was head of the [Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee], he took a group of Senate candidates, including Amy Klobuchar, now the senior senator from Minnesota, and their families on a bike tour of Brooklyn.  "Chuck has a bullhorn, and he stops in front of his building and announces that he and Iris [his wife] bought their apartment for a hundred and fifty thousand dolars and now it's worth ten times that much," Klobuchar recalled.  "And my twelve-year-old daughter pulled on my jacket and said, 'Mom, if you said that in Minnesota, you'd be in so much trouble.'"

Klobuchar's daughter certainly seems well-versed in Minnesota's cultural tics.  What struck me, though, was her presence on this bike tour with Sen. Schumer.  It reminded me of another anecdote, from a source who shall remain unnamed in this forum.  This person chanced upon Sen. Klobuchar in public, and used the occasion to lobby for a federal judgeship.  But Senator Klobuchar was not alone -- she was with her fifteen-year-old (or so) daughter.  And they were holding hands.
