Florida's Republican Delegation

Toby's blade cuts true: Ted leads this partisan vanguard, demanding Bartlet confront Ritchie at a Catholic fundraiser—a brazen spectacle to flip five welfare votes. GOP ranks tighten, leveraging Florida's congressional clout to sabotage Democratic lines, their brinkmanship igniting raw standoffs that fracture legislative fronts and test Oval resolve amid surging electoral crossfire.
