Did anybody else find it beyond laughable that she had her generals threatening military action against Nigeria is order to save the woman who was going to be executed for adultery. Granted, a human rights travesty, but talk about a ridiculous grip on foreign policy and a totally unbelievable scenario.

That is in this week's episode. The previews gave me the impression that she wants to nominate someone, but it gets leaked that someone else is being nominated. The leak is from none other than the Speaker of the House (Donald Sutherland). Then end of the preview showed her saying that she will not anyone else run her Presidency....

The sad thing is that I thought the exact same thing.


Watching ABC hype this damn show makes me puke.

" she had a nightmare!"

" She's not a woman. She's the President...."

"uhhh she's not a woman?"

"is she leading? I think she's leading"

Huh?! Nobody but the President can nominate a new Vice President.

What I gathered from the previews last week is that the Speaker of the House *leaked* information that the president would be nominating this one person (who would do anything possible to undermine the president) before she could announce who she was nominating for VP. The previews kept using words like "sabotage" to get the point across that many people are doing whatever they can to undermine the new President.

I taped the first episode of this show (cause I watch House) and didn't get around to watching it...But, since stupid baseball was on last night (and for the next 2-3 weeks), I watched last night.

I liked it, especially the ending where she was talking to the General. I liked it because they were able to make her a strong character without her being a b*tch.

So I just watched both episodes thanks to my DVR (I've not had time before now), and I love this show. I was big time into the WB's Jack and Bobby last year, and this is gonna take its spot for me. I loved West Wing for a while too, but I like the spin on this. It didn't just make her the President with ease, it's realistically making things difficult, but she's a good strong female character. I think it's enjoyable to watch, and I look forward to future episodes.

Probably my favourite show on television now. I'm so glad there's a good political show on tv again!

Maybe the best line of the Fall Season so far:

"Is She leading?"

Even after her Cheif of Staff (Jim who turned in his resignation) showed up with Tempelton's COS in a towel?? I'm sure that is what they want us to think, but it sure did look like it!

It's going to be interesting how the VP thing plays out now that Templeton has something over on him. Templeton is deliciously devilish!

I really like this show too!

Unless Mac said something to her husband about that meeting that only Jim, Bridges, and Mac had, Jim HAS to (inadvertently) be the link - unless Bridges spread the information to someone else, which isn't unlikely (or maybe Bridges didn't really die, and it's a conspiracy theory )

Maybe after next week's show, where it looks like Mac has something over Templeton, the thing he has over the VP will "mysteriously" slip everyone's minds

This show has drawn me in, however
