This is not a 'You-go-Hillary' show, this is a 'You-go-girl' show. I just want to see women in the process, whether they be Democrats or Republicans or independents. If there's any social agenda to the show, it's to be enthusiastic about the idea of a woman president - and an independent president.

Hillary Clinton is going to have a very tough fight. However, if she should get the nomination, we're all taking the credit.

But at least it's being adopted by a Rockefeller.

If I was just throwing on the air another middle-aged white man as president of the United States and he was a Democrat, then, no, there would be no reason to do it.

[If he weren't so eager to differentiate between the two shows, Lurie could have easily called his new series The East Wing .] What The West Wing does extremely well is show how bills are made and how the White House works with the Congress. They're a very political show, ... We're going to deal a lot with the family: how you get the kids to school; this sounds petty but how do you take little kids trick-or-treating; a lot of what takes place in the residence. While [Davis' character] is the president of the United States, she's also a mother. I don't think that would disappear even if a woman became the president.

This is not good for Hillary!
