Five days before the New Hampshire primary, a desperate Josh must find a way to get his trailing candidate, Congressman Santos, into the local newspaper's debate between the two front-runners, Vice President Russell and Hoynes, or face extinction -- until they gamble on staging their own debate. When Santos brings in savvy Amy Gardner to prep him, Josh clashes with both his ex-girlfriend and his candidate over the listless campaign.

[edit] Trivia

Freedonia is the mythical country in the 1933 Marx Brothers film "Duck Soup". In this episode, Santos complains that political discourse has fallen so low that when one politician was asked recently about the "situation in Freedonia", he claimed he was "studying it". [1]
