Candace watched the news and shook her head. Great. She looked up when Dana walked into the room.

“You saw it?” Dana guessed.

Candace nodded. Her primary rival for the Democratic nomination, George Keyes had just finished a round of interviews expressing his concern that Candace’s lengthy political career put her in jeopardy in a general election. He’d also adopted the argument that Candace was beholden to the establishment that had deliberately positioned her for a run for the White House. She would inevitably be forced to do their bidding.

“I can’t believe this is his argument,” Dana said.

Candace shrugged. “It’s politics, Dana. He wants to win.”

“You’re not pissed?”

“I’m disappointed,” Candace said. “I’d hoped that we would debate policy and not politics.”

“He’s pissed because he knows you have President Wallace in your corner.”

“The president will be in the corner of whoever is nominated.”

“Candy, they want you to…”

“It’s part of the game, Dana.”

“How do you want me to respond?”

“Use the facts.”

“Not very glamorous.”

“Well, that’s the contrast. Stick to the narrative,” Candace instructed. “For now.”

Dana shook her head. “You’re the boss.”

Candace smiled. “Yes, I am.”
