10* ADayInTheLimelight: This episode is focused primarily on Senator Vinick as he is coping with being the Republican candidate, picking a vice-president of his own and being asked why he won't go to church.
11* EntitledBastard: Bartlet calls in Santos and Russell for a photo-op and when Will Bailey got word, he said that it was an insult to the vice-president to allow the Santos campaign into ''his'' White House.
12-->'''C.J.:''' Oh, so it's Russell's White House, now?
13-->'''Bailey:''' It's the vice-president's turf. He belongs here, they don't.
14* ExactWords: President Bartlet noted that the Constitution spoke much of the separation between church and state, but it didn't say anything of the separation between church and ''politics''.
15* TheFundamentalist: Downplayed with Reverend Don Butler. He is respectful and courteous toward the Pro-Choice Arnold Vinick. Still, he makes it plain that, whatever political ambitions he has and however much they could accomplish together, he won't join Vinick's ticket due to their differing opinions on abortion.
16* GeniusSweetTooth: Bartlet and Vinick help themselves to the giant containers of ice-cream in the White House kitchen while debating their relationships with faith.
17-->'''Bartlet:''' The hardest part of this job is knowing that this stash is down here 24 hours a day.
