The Democrat version of Game Change

Still waiting for the drama that covers the race for the Democratic Party's nominee in 2008. That is a story filled with drama. You have the poor campaign run by Hillary Clinton. You also have the end of John Edward's political career when his affair with Rielle Hunter is exposed. This while his wife Elizabeth is seriously ill. Not forgetting the incredible rise of a politician called Barack Obama. The battle between Clinton and Obama was vicious, as she resented the challenge from this upstart from Illinois. When is Hollywood going to make that movie?

Never gonna happen. Jay Roach is a fucking cunt of a liberal pansy that won't do something that would have such a negative ending. One could say that about 2008's "Recount" because it didn't go "their way", but I don't think the Hollyweird machine will let Roach show the pant-suit hag melting down and drinking herself into a stooper as it's been said from back then.

Won't happen because HBO is an extremely liberal company that won't slander it's own party. Best bet would to be from a right leaning studio and those ones don't normally make good movies.

All of that was in the book, but for some reason didn't make it to the movie. File that under things that make you go Hmmmm.
