It occurs to me that there would be a lot less coverage of the US Presidential Primaries here in the UK if the West Wing hadn’t been so widely watched by the kind of people responsible for deciding what political things get coverage.
Being an enormous fan of the West Wing, if not actual real life US Politics, I’m quite glad. New Hampshire’s all about handshake politics donchaknow. And in Iowa you have to say something about ethanol, apparently. Sadly the primaries are leaving my sphere of extensive knowledge now. Good luck to all involved.
