1:27:01
- Bad.
- How bad?
1:27:02
Forty-one. Character, across the board.
1:27:04
Come on, don't tell me that!
1:27:07
- Who is Lewis on with?
- Jarrett.
1:27:09
Trying to keep his fingers in the dam.
1:27:11
You're supposed to be
a United States' Congressman.
1:27:15
We're not gonna stay at 41.
The numbers are gonna go back up.
1:27:19
But they're gonna go back up.
1:27:22
All right, George--
1:27:23
Congressman.
1:27:24
Congressman Jarrett...
1:27:26
Look, George, listen to me.
1:27:28
It's crunch time. It's personal.
1:27:31
This is one of those moments.
It's just you and the President.
1:27:34
What's it going to be?
1:27:43
Can I tell you something?
We're gonna win this thing.
1:27:46
We'll get the votes and we'll win this.
1:27:48
You know what I'm gonna do
that very night?
1:27:50
I'll go to Sam and Harry's
and order a big steak...
1:27:52
...and make a list of everybody
who tried to fuck us this week!
1:27:55
Just vote your conscience,
you chicken-shit lame-ass!
1:28:02
We lost Jarrett.
1:28:03
I hope so. If that was an undecided,
then we need to work on our people skills.
1:28:08
Karen, it's Lewis. Find Congressman
Quincy for me right away. Thank you.
1:28:16
We lost Quincy, too.
1:28:21
Did he give a reason?
1:28:23
He thinks your numbers
aren't likely to rebound.
1:28:28
We're three votes down again, sir.
1:28:32
Mr.President, as of this morning
Sydney only needed one more vote.
1:28:37
The Motown Three must be scared blind.
1:28:38
I don't think there will be
a better opportunity.
1:28:41
The press expects an announcement
on the crime bill by the State of the Union.
1:28:45
If you agree to stick 455 in the drawer
until after the elections...
1:28:48
- ...they'll give you the three votes.
- And we declare victory, sir.
1:28:53
We said, "as a last resort."
1:28:56
We're there.
1:28:57
State of the Union is 48 hours away.
1:28:59
- There must be three votes someplace.
- There isn't.
