well duh.. of course it will, how else are people to define themselves (and others) if not in terms of "left" or "right".

of course sorkin should abandon his leftist crusade, because the show IS MUCH BETTER when it isn't about that. but what's the point if no matter how little any given episode has to do with politics, it will be all some people focus on? it's not like independant thought is in vogue any longer in this country. people have made up their minds about what they think of sorkin and his politics their political party of choice has handed out the memo on what their opinions of this show should be, and, by god, they will stick to it.

better to just cancel it now so everyone can get another night of "american idol" in, or whatever other lame, whitebread crap reality show passes for "entertainment" now-a-days.

anyway, all kidding aside. politics be dammed, i'll take good "scripted" television wherever i can find it, because AFAICT it's an endangered species in todays world.

So, she did say "Are you frakkin' kidding me...".

Wow, now there's a relief...
