The West Wing, Season One

Josh:
Forgive my bluntness, and I say this with all due respect, Congressman, but vote yes, or you're not even going to be on the ballot two years from now.

Katzenmoyer:
How do you figure?

Josh:
You're going to lose in the primary.

Katzenmoyer:
There's no Democrat running against me.

Josh:
Sure there is.

Katzenmoyer:
Who?

Josh:
Whomever we pick.

Katzenmoyer:
You're bluffing.

Josh:
Okay.

Katzenmoyer:
I'm in your own party!

Josh:
Doesn't seem to be doing us much good now, does it?

Katzenmoyer:
Against an incumbent Democrat. You'll go to the press and endorse a challenger?

Josh:
No sir. We're going to do it in person. See, you won with fifty-two percent, but the President took your district with fifty-nine. And I think it's high time we come back and say thanks. Do you have any idea how much noise Air Force One makes when it lands in Eau Claire, Wisconsin? We're going to have a party, Congressman. You should come, it's gonna be great. And when the watermelon's done, right in town square, right in the band gazebo... You guys got a band gazebo?

Katzenmoyer:
Josh...

Josh:
Doesn't matter, we'll build one. Right in the band gazebo, that's where the President is going to drape his arm around the shoulder of some assistant DA we like. And you should have your camera with you. You should get a picture of that. 'Cause that's gonna be the moment you're finished in Democratic politics. President Bartlet's a good man. He's got a good heart. He doesn't hold a grudge. That's what he pays me for.
