We've got the smart, informed, educated Democrat vs. the stupid Republican who can't even get a sentence out without being interrupted by the same talking points that I regurgitated back during the 2008 campaign.

If it's any better [which it isn't] an earlier episode has Shore arguing with another boss [of the firm Crane, Poole, and Schmidt] which is Obama [Shore] vs Clinton [Schmidt] and it's the same scene for the most part except it ends with a hug.

One of the best parts about the whole show is that while Shore is a lecherous degenerate [pretty much his most common role in things], he's still one of the most morally consistent and least hypocritical characters throughout the whole thing.

Crane is a staunch Republican, to parody levels [one episode has him relieved of 5 firearms in a scene after previously being relieved of another 3 earlier that episode], and yet the end of the episode the above scene is from heavily suggests he votes for Obama.

Edwin Poole has a mental breakdown in the very first episode of the first season so isn't worth noting even with his other 3 or so appearances throughout the other seasons.

Schmidt being the sole female senior/named partner gets all the feminism angles, including a very fun episode where she stands defending one of her friends during a pregnancy case.

Schmidt is also one of the most vindictive characters in the show regarding how she responds when confronted or someone does something she personally disapproves of despite also claiming that the "interests of the firm [Crane, Poole, and Schmidt]" are what is important and what she cares about. Which is pretty much a lie and cover to get away with her own ideology most of the time, especially when she gets outvoted by the managing partners several times and then overrules them.

Said friend is very likely insane but the premise of the case is the friend [an extremely affluent white woman - note she's affluent enough when introduced but even more so at this point due to divorcing an even richer man so ticking off that box regarding how women actually become rich for the most part] is pregnant with the child of a man [working class black man] she knew for barely a few weeks. Unsurprisingly the guy knowing the woman is batshit insane doesn't want anything to do with her, but he's now on the hook as she's pregnant. The woman however goes straight to the point of stereotypical white-savior/benevolent racist by saying:

"the thought of having beautiful mocha choco lato bambinos with him, ooo it brings a flutter to my ~"

So as per a lot of these situations she doesn't actually care about the guy in question, just that he's black and can give her a black baby. Who will have an absent father because of the whole thing going on. Which said black father specifically highlights as being something he knows is a problem and doesn't want to contribute to, however the mother involved is clinically unbalanced.
