This episode just made me root for Vinick even more because of the smugness of the Santos camp. Then they did all but give the GOP bigwigs pitchforks and pointed ears.

The shot of the Vinick camp walking into the WW was pretty funny.
If I was Josh I would have fired the worker for her unintentional cock block.
Looking forward to the guest spots in the final weeks.
Looks like we will even get to find out what happened to

Toby was looking pretty haggard in that promo.

This is all 20/20, but all the cracks about Vinick's health is going to look bad after Leo dies. 
Of course, since this season of TWW is sci fi and Santos is going to be the next President, it won't be dealt with.
The Debbie wisecrack, on the other hand, was spot on for how politics are like in real life.

I liked this ep and have been enjoying the last season as a whole. With everyone coming back for a reuion ep, the scene from earlier in the year at the dedication for the Bartlett Library seems a bit incomplete.

Any episode that actually has Vinnick in more than just a background TV soundbite gets a 
I thought it pretty weird that all the Vinnick advisers and the candidate himself were all sitting around tables with glasses on, while the Santos advisers did not. Craggy old guard vs. young whipper-snappers?

To me, this is the best show on tv right now. I know that 'it isn't what it used to be' but I don't care. While watching this week's episode I laughed, cheered, cried, and had every other emotion I can think of. I love watching these characters so much. Seriously, I could have watched an entire episode of Will Bailey and Kate Harper being awkward with each other. And even if CJ has been showcased a million times already, when she sat down with Donna to get the gossip I wished there was more of her in the episode.
I am already starting to miss The West Wing and I know the final few episodes will be very real and emotional. Just like Six Feet Under, or Sorkin's other show Sports Night. Just feel like I know these people.
Last thing...when the music cued up at the end of the episode, Vinick gets out of his motorcade after his main lady resigns and is silouetted from the back against the light drenched hotel...WOW, what a shot. I felt like I was watching a film from the 40s. W.
