There's probably not a person on the show I'd agree with politically, but they're well cast and entertaining.
It got some criticism in the first season for weak writing. Made me laugh, since The West Wing received so many accolades for being well written when it was stock, corny, and painfully didactic.

In laws have been urging me to watch WW. I cannot do leftist corn and smugness. Just cannot.
The writing was not weak .this series is a thousand times better than West Wing, which was not watchable. Must be West Wing friends who are bitter that H of Cards is so much better.
