They said in S1 that Palmer was a Dem. That makes the Prez a Repub. I'm still uneasy. I hope the plot changes........but in an interview, Sutherland said "there are traitors in every Administration".
There are some republicans that seem just as duplicitous as the characters in the show......McCain for instance. :)
Absolutely not....
Logan was the VP of the guy who beat Palmer in a subsequent primary.
