Commander In Chief (TV Show)

I have actually been watching this show. It's not really bad and while I first thought it would be a liberal banner to elect Senator Clinton as President, I'm not quite sure about that assessment. I found the this article pretty good.

"Mac" is a U.S. congresswoman-turned-university official and a Republican-turned-Independent. On the other hand, Hillary is a Democrat, a former first lady and now a U.S. senator.

Mac's road to the White House began as a vice-presidential can didate chosen to boost the women's vote for her Republican running mate, who then, after just two years in office, obligingly died. Hillary can't count on that measure of support.

Mac is 6 feet tall and isn't married to former President Clinton. Hillary isn't, and is.


(May I add that Geena Davis is also stunning and Hillary, well...)

and...

But what about "Commander in Chief" writer Steven Cohen, who worked for Hillary Clinton as the then-first lady's deputy communications director?

Sure, said Lurie, who mentioned another of the show's writers, Crystal Nix Hines, who previously clerked for Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor. Yet another, Stuart Stevens, ran the 2000 and 2004 media campaigns for President Bush (and has ridden bikes with him).


It's good to know that they have a diverse staff of writers for this show. I vote yes for the show but no for Senator Clinton.
