I must admit that one of the reasons I loved "The West Wing" so much was how fictitious characters playing Democrats and Republicans would argue with each other over bills and issues, and then cross party lines to work together. I would like to see that happen in real life. Smart leaders surround themselves with people who question and scrutinize their decisions. Even though I disagree with some of his positions, I am thrilled Obama is our new president, and will hold him to an even higher standard as a result.
That's a great voting story, by the way. Thanks for posting it.
