@andisheh @ShmosKnows A post, either #OnHere or #OnThatOtherSite , can't remember which, (can't search here, won't search there) once posited that a big problem w/ political journalism is that so many of its practitioners seem to fall into two camps: those who think that The West Wing showed how "politics really works", vs those who say, "Au Contraire! House of Cards is what you should watch to get the straight dope!"

When, in reality, Veep is where it's at.
