Plot summary
The Democratic primary race has reached Ohio, where Pennsylvania Governor Mike Morris and Arkansas Senator Ted Pullman are the two candidates still in contention for the presidential nomination. Stephen Meyers, thirty, serves as Morris's press secretary under the campaign manager Paul Zara, and he believes in Morris more than in any other candidate. Morris presents himself as a man who would rather run on his ideals than on back room deals. Tom Duffy, who manages Pullman's campaign, invites Stephen to switch sides, while Ida Horowicz, a reporter for the New York Times, presses the staff for information. Stephen also begins a casual relationship with Molly Stearns, a twenty-year-old intern whose father, Jack Stearns, chairs the Democratic National Committee.
