The Midterms
Original Airdate: 10/18/00
As one of the President’s staff, Josh recovers from bullet wounds, the rest of the team pushes on to the “mid-term” congressional elections in November — but as C.J. deflects press requests on how the assassination attempt has affected the mood in the White House, she knows that nearly everyone bears psychological scars in its aftermath. In particular, Charlie is affected when he learns more about the shooting and reacts coldly both to Bartlet and Zoey. For his part, Toby surveys the President’s newfound popularity in the polls and proposes that the administration pursue a course that would turn up the heat on extremist groups while Sam convinces a friend, Tom Jordan to run for Congress after the death of Grant Samuels, the current congressman. Elsewhere, Bartlet is obsessed with an obscure school board election in New Hampshire for purely personal reasons.
