Owens staffers are "Hill Climbers"

Two of the Rep. William L. Owens' staffers - Sean Magers, spokesman, and Jon Boughtin, senior legislative assistant - are profiled in today's edition of "Hill Climbers," a feature about up-and-comers in Washington produced by Roll Call.
The article contains several great tidbits, such as:
- Boughtin got the nickname "Bowtie," because people at his old gig at the DCCC couldn't pronounce his last name.
- He once doubled as a Caribou Coffee barista and intern for Rep. Harold Ford Jr.
- Magers is a Los Angeles Dodgers fan, and is mostly likely that goofy kid you've seen crossing his arms, nodding his head and staring at his shoes the last time Vampire Weekend played the 9:30 Club. (I may have exaggerated this last point a bit.)
In all seriousness, congrats to these two guys for the write-up.
