This is a good political thriller that would have been great 15 years ago. The problem is now there are politicians that break the rules like this constantly. Politicians cheat, lie, steal, make back door deals, and pretty much do it all and even when they get caught, no big deal. Other problems are that the Democratic team have members that are way too young, such as a 20 yo intern, and 30 yo Ryan Gosling, and pretty much the whole staff. In reality, most of the staff would be 40 and 50 yos, even if he was trying to get the young vote (and most of the young don't vote anyway). Add the fact that when they need money for a hidden event, no one has $900 dollars! At the national level, I think the staff members have that much money in savings. It's a good movie, but not the great thriller it previews to be.
