Wetland

Wetland surges into Democratic war rooms as a razor-sharp alternative to VP Hoynes, strategists like Hanson thrusting his name forward with Hutchinson and Seth Gillette amid Bartlet's MS thunderbolt. Fundraising muscle defines his edge, shattering Hoynes monopoly assumptions and igniting Roosevelt Room firestorms where loyalty slams against raw contingency calculus. Unseen but gravitational, Wetland crystallizes party pragmatism clawing for post-Bartlet survival.
