I have West Wing going in the background a lot of the time while I’m watering the plants, doing laundry, etc. I find it comforting. But I happen to be at the point where Republican Vinick is running for president, and he is honest and principled and answers every question put to him, thinking as hard as he can, and even though I don’t agree with him on much of anything, it just makes my heart hurt for this country.
If I were a Republican today, or a moderate conservative generally, I’d be SO ANGRY at what the party has become.
