A World of Their Own

I have this running theory that explains the popularity of The West Wing, which is Hollywood's alternative reality version of Washington, D.C. I think many people, and not just liberals, prefer the show because it's so, well, high-minded. Unlike all our real-life politicians. Then again, I'm guessing the voters in The West Wing's alternative universe are also a little more idealized than all of us.

But then, there is the liberal half of the audience, which I think enjoys it because it allows them to escape reality. Only in Hollywood do Democrats get to keep winning elections. Check this out...

Here SHE is.

The President of the United States.

Coming soon, if ABC's drama pilot "Commander in Chief" gets picked up.

Anticipating a run by Hillary Clinton, Geena Davis will star as the first female president of the United States!

Davis, a Democrat political activist, is set for the two-hour pilot with writer/director Rod Lurie.
I'm smelling a Sheen-Davis ticket for 2008 for the Democrats. Hey, anything's better than Kerry-Edwards.
