Think of ER, Kerry Weaver a Lesbian in a relationship and trying to have a child. Carter's full name is John Truman Carter from a family of rich Democrats and became a drug addict who recovered through treatment. He make George Clooney a star, be making a drinken womanizing, irresponsible childrens doctor sexy and loveable. They are bringing a new character played by an British Sihk, how many writters in American tv have an Indian character? In fact the desk clark who is a Conservative Republican is a portrayed as an intolerent, unpopular, judgemental idiot. The Repub viewers may think he is a hero but we don't. On The West Wing they have shown both fair and corrupt Republicans before. I like the fact that they haven't stearotyped all the Repubs as evil and corrupt but have put in characters like Steve Onterio that do represent the dangerous side of the party. In a scene between Ainsley and Sam, it showed how pre-concieved ideas about someones politics can stop you from hearing a good arguement.
If CJ who work for Emily's list, starts to preach Pro-Life arguements and Toby stops fighting against school prayer then worry about the right wing. They had right wing consultants before, they have always had consultants from both sides to balance the arguements and get them right.
