I first saw this at Doc Films at the University of Chicago. I was expecting it to be interesting, but dry. Wow, was I wrong. The entire audience was enthralled and frequently laughing their heads off. You couldn't make up comedic characters like these if you tried. James and George are just amazing. (Of course, there would be times where HALF the audience was laughing, split along party lines. :-) )
The filmmakers also liven up the proceedings with good choices of music and little bits of Americana tossed in here and there. Invite over all your political junkie friends, get a few beers, rent this movie, and enjoy.

Even if you don't watch many movies, you've still seen this one many times before. The characters have no depth, the plot stumbles along unconvincingly from one cliched device to another, there's just nothing which made me care about what was happening on screen.
Parts of it were very pretty, in a glossy kind of way, which was why I gave it a 4 instead of a 2. But when it comes down to it, I wanted to shut it off after 45 minutes, and an hour and a half later I wished I had.
