Transcript:
Rick: She wants you to manage her campaign? Joanie: Yup. It'd only be for a few weeks, Rick. I could use the change of pace. Rick: You sure you want to take care of something that stressful? Joanie: How stressful can it be? Lacey doesn't even have an opponent! Rick: Maybe not now, but it's not too late for someone to jump in. Joanie: Are you kidding? Who's going to run against a 74-year-old grandmother with a pregnant campaign manager? Rick: Boy... you two play hardball. Joanie: Well, only until we can work up a real strategy.

“Who’s going to run against a 74-year-old grandmother with a pregnant campaign manager?”
I picture Jeb Bush trying on gray-haired wigs while Karl Rove stuffs a pillow down the front of his pants.
