Sandy

persistent direct professional

Sandy stakes her claim in the White House press corps' front lines, her voice thrusting the reelection dagger into President Bartlet's calculated ambiguity during a charged conference. Bartlet summons her deliberately, bypassing Altman to ignite the moment; she fires the query—will he seek a second term?—and doubles down, repeating with unflagging precision as he feigns deafness. Tension grips staff wings—Charlie, C.J., Carol, Leo—as her persistence wrenches a pocketed smile of resolve from Bartlet, her dogged probe crystallizing the administration's defiant recommitment amid MS shadows and party fractures.
