Anyone know what font this is?

Checked a few on Identifont... either can't get the "A", "S" or the "Q" correct in any one font - this is the best I could come up with:
"There's been a lot of research recently on how hard it is to dislodge an impression once it's been implanted in someone's mind. (This is why political attack ads don't have to be true to be effective. The other side can point out their inaccuracies, but the voter's mind privileges the memory of the original accusation, which was juicier than any counterargument ever could be.)"

"Selling my soul would be a lot easier if I could just find it."

Thanks. Yep, the Q is what is throwing me off and that it looks like a condensed version of whatever it is.

20 minute job is taking me way longer because I "must" match the previous font. Guess I can save that for the "Prepress Rant" thread.

[edit]nope... the 'K' is different...

I would take this and "modify" the Q and S in Illy. Are you just using the font for this word?

Thanks Skryber. I think we have a winner. Only using it for one word and an abbreviation (OP). I agree with modifying in Illy.
