GDC's political director
didn't tell us anything.
1:23:03
Sydney Wade told her boyfriend and
his best friend that she had a lousy day.
1:23:07
It doesn't change the fact.
1:23:09
If Sydney gets her 24 votes and we're three
votes shy, there's maneuvering to be done.
1:23:14
- I made a promise.
- You made a deal.
1:23:15
- I made it with Sydney.
- With the GDC.
1:23:18
It's all academic.
We won't need those three votes.
1:23:20
Sir, if your approval rating continues
to drop, things are going to get tight.
1:23:29
I've been hearing rumors that your boss
is wavering on the crime bill.
1:23:33
I wouldn't listen to rumors.
You know this town.
1:23:35
That's what I wanted to hear.
1:23:37
My boss is starting to waver
on the crime bill.
1:23:41
Everybody cares about the environment
during a phone survey.
1:23:45
On election day, nobody gives a damn.
That's why you have a job.
1:23:50
On election day, people give a damn about
what I tell them to give a damn about.
1:23:55
That's why I have a job.
1:23:57
She got Pennybaker.
1:24:01
It was our understanding
we had your support.
1:24:04
Look, I like you, boy. Always have.
1:24:07
But for God's sake,
does the woman have to spend the night?
1:24:10
We've got the full backing
of the White House.
1:24:13
Yes, at 20 percent.
1:24:15
Three more votes
and the President sends it to the Hill.
1:24:19
Katey...
1:24:21
In ten years, any car with an internal
combustion engine will be a collectible.
1:24:26
Come on board.
We'll make your Volvo a classic.
1:24:28
The assault weapons are gone.
1:24:30
The bill is priced to move.
1:24:32
The bill isn't the issue.
1:24:35
I'm facing a serious challenge in November.
1:24:38
The President's coattails aren't
what they used to be.
1:24:40
The President's coattails will have room
for you. You just leave that to us.
1:24:44
We left that to you
and now the President's in a free fall.
1:24:47
- I wouldn't say he's in a free fall--
- Fellas.
1:24:50
I just can't give you my vote.
1:24:53
The well is drying up. He's gotta make
a move or we'll die fast and quiet.
1:24:57
What if I do a detailed public opinion poll?
1:24:59
- And we put Sydney in the new model.
- Right.
