Amerikan başkanı olma sürecindeki Mike Morris'in adamı Stephen Myers, karşı taraftan da teklifler almaktadır. Fakat idealleri ve prensipleri teklifleri reddetmesini gerektirir. Ne zaman Mike Morris başkan seçilir ve kirli politik işler işin içine girer, o zaman Stephen Myers tarafını bulmakta sıkıntı yaşar. Stephen Meyers is an idealist who's brilliant at communications, is second in command of Governor Mike Morris's presidential campaign, and is a true believer. In the middle of the Ohio primary, the campaign manager of Morris's opponent asks Meyers to meet; he offers him a job. At the same time, Morris's negotiations for the endorsement of the man in third place, a North Carolina Senator, hit a snag. A young campaign intern, Molly Stearns, gets Stephen's romantic attention. Republicans have a trick up their sleeve; Stephen may be too trusting, and Molly has a secret. What's most important, career, victory, or virtue?
