~By George William Norris ~
We are angry about paying the highest income taxes and property taxes in the nation and getting less and less for it.

~By Delta Burke ~
I am an old, old friend of Aaron Sorkin's, who is the executive producer and writer. He had been talking about doing a political show for a long time and I had been interested in it for a long time.
