Chapter 3
Leo looked at the Governor. " For press secretary I have 3 names but 1 I have a feeling you will like the best. I have had my eye on her ever since I started looking."
Governor Bartlett smiled " I wonder if its the same one I have been thinking about. Cause if so I agree. Shes exactly what we need."
They both said in unison "C.J. Cregg"
They both stared at each other for the longest time and than the governor finally spoke up "Your right she is perfect for the job. Shes the guttsiest of the bunch, and isn't afraid to speak her mind." They both started laughing thinking of the first time they saw her. She was subbing in for a reporter at a white house briefing. " Do you remember in the cafeteria coincidentally John was there to. She tripped on someones foot and food splattered all over Johns new suit. She started laughing so hard she threw his own food at her one of the milks hit you. And you threw a carrot at him and when he tried to hit you he hit me. And of course when that happened it went crazy being a high ranking person in the white house the secret service got involved."
Leo was rolling on the floor laughing " Boy do I remember good memories good memories. I wonder if she remembers do you think she will take the job. I heard she just got promoted to senior editor."
Governor Bartlett shook his head " Who would turn down the opportunity to work in the white house. Especially at the request of the presidential candidate himself."
Leo looked at him with a disapproving look "Don't get ahead of yourself my friend we aren't at the white house yet. 1 step at a time. So its official shes our choice for press secretary, and if shes crazy enough to decline we will consider our other options."
The governor nodded " Yes we will. But not until we have an answer. Cause I have a feeling she will accept I bet my money on it."
