I wanted to slap the woman who is the "first lady's" chief of staff. I found it utterly annoying that she kept saying "Mrs. Clinton did this" or "Mrs. Clinton did that". First off, Clinton hasn't been in office for five years and this "term" is supposed to take place after President Bush's, which won't end until 08, and 2 1/2 years later, so we're looking early 2011. I say this because in all technicalities Clinton hadn't been in office for 11 years but this chick was still comparing everyone to Mrs. Clinton. Man, she was annoying  . I hope the "first gentleman" tells her to give it a rest. LOL

I think the point was to show that he is experiencing the similar resistance to his new role that his wife is experiencing in her new role. Hillary Clinton was the first First Lady to break convention in her role. It was a subtle way of saying that he would be met with similiar resistance if he chose to break from the convention of his role. And it was funny. I thought it was funny and clever and I am a big Hillary supporter.
I thought the show was very good and I am eager to see how the rest of the season unfolds.
