"If you'd ask John Atang, he'd say I want to bomb everything from here to Canberra but that's really not true." She sighed, shaking her head. "I know I'm not the most progressive member of the caucus and so I'm always anxious that I'll be viewed as some sort of 'great enemy', like how people constantly attacked (not-Pelosi)."

I agree that presidential candidates would be a poor choice for leadership. I doubt they would be effective considering that they will be in Iowa or New Hampshire every weekend for the next six months. Do you have any progressives in mind for a position?

"Lucky" taunted Sullivan, smiling at her peer.

"Not particularly" she answered, shaking her head, "Lots of the progressives are not comfortable options. I may speak to Doyle though, I like that man. Who are you thinking of? To fill any of the positions I mean?"


"I think that you should seriously consider talking to Moore. He has impeccable progressive credentials. Elevating him sends a message to progressives that they have an important role to play in our party's future. He represents a swing state in the Midwest and is part of a group that is the heart of the Democratic Party"

"Instructions'll be given to Admiral (not-Lisa Franchetti) and we'll proceed according to the timescale laid out in the plan."

"Excellent Bernstein, excellent."

The President pulled out his iPhone and began to compose a quick "tweet," which he read aloud for the other man as he typed.

Berentsen had been reviewing reams and reams of information in his office at the Pentagon, trying to avail himself of every bit of strategic information he could get about Iran. He didn't want to take any chances, and his habitual fastidiousness had kicked in. The phonecall had broken him out of a long trance staring at satellite photos of naval facilities in the Sistan-Balochistan Province and he picked up.

"This is Secretary Berentsen at the Pentagon."
