The one bright spot is his precocious, over-achieving twelve year-old daughter Molly. She takes care of both of them, until one mischievous moment on Election Day, when she accidentally sets off a chain of events which culminates in the election coming down to one vote…her dad’s.

Since this is election year and neither Democrat can get enough delegates to be the nominee without the superdelegates, I think this film is going to fit in wonderfully well. It is almost like Kevin could see into the future when he signed on to do this movie. The trailer seems to be a fun movie.

Well, the Democratic candidate will be decided by some very regular folks who are superdelegates. Once upon a time, being a super delegate was a completely pointless, random job that had zero clout or recognition. Sounds like a fun premise that is kind of relevant. Plus I like Costner. “The film actually has an interesting but totally unrealistic concept.”

Yep, complete crap. This film should be listed as a fantasy because it's impossible for an election to come down to one person, even if they are a loveable loser. Sounds like crap.

I'll probably watch this on DVD. Looks like Costner might have put a leash on his ego and is actually a little charming in this. I’ll probably watch this on DVD.

Nice to imagine how you could get people to bow to your whims if you were in that situation. But I have to say that for me the final verdict will rest on whether Bud goes D or R and the reason that finally tips the scales. Depending on how that situation is handled, there could immediately be 50% of the electorate turned off immediately. Would be easier to just bash W for 90 minutes as he's got the highest disapproval rating EVAR. I’d say the premise is cool.

Good cast and polish. Decent film that you may have to see while visiting your parents and not completely hate. I still stand by statement that if Dennis Hopper was running for Prez, I'm pretty sure it would be to take over the world and harvest souls. He's Creepy man.
