Goofs:

Continuity: When Donna (Janel Moloney) Enters Josh's room to find him not prepared for the presidents upcoming speech to kick off his reelection campaign, Josh (Bradley Whitford) is wearing a Wesleyan University shirt. The character Josh did not go to Wesleyan, he went to Harvard for college and Yale for law school. The reason for this error is because Bradley Whitford went to Wesleyan.

Quotes:

President Josiah "Jed" Bartlet: There's a new book, and we're gonna write it. You can win if you run a smart, disciplined campaign. If you studiously say nothing - nothing that causes you trouble, nothing that's a gaffe, nothing that shows you might think the wrong thing, nothing that shows you think. But it just isn't worthy of us, is it Toby?
Toby Ziegler: No, sir.
