I think it's more that watching this election has made more of us remember what it was like watching the show and wishing we had a president like Bartlett. I think we're already so full of hope and faith that perhaps a truly gifted man might actually occupy that chair that we can't wait for the actual election and are reminding ourselves of what it felt like to spend those hours with a fictional president.
Never mind that so many of Obama's speeches have sounded like a page from a West Wing script. :) The first time I tripped over an Obama event on TV, I was hooked, and since we still have a week and a half left to know whether this country is capable of doing what is best for ALL the people in it, I am diving into West Wing so I don't chew my nails.
