By the way, whatever other strategies were considered when the decision was made on the Democratic VP nominee selection, it’s clear that the shot callers in the Obama campaign are fans of “The West Wing.”
Matthew Santos…inexperienced, but charismatic, ethnic who came out of nowhere to create a rock star-like buzz and see it carry him all the way to the Democratic nomination for President…
Leo McGarry…veteran, take no guff from anybody, politician who knows his way around the Beltway and has stood, or sat, toe to toe with leaders from all over the world, bringing clout and experience to the ticket as nominee for Vice President.
Santos.
McGarry.
Obama.
Biden.
It’s been often said that television played a gigantic part in the election of 1960.
The more things change…
