McBride goes medieval in Your Highness

Casino Jack struggles with pacing
The world of D.C. lobbyists is filled with slick, fast-talking, callous, sleaze bags getting into high-stakes sexy action while exchanging money and extravagant gifts for political favors… well, according to Hollywood anyway. Most of the time, it seems like they’d fit in better with Ari Gold on Entourage than they do on Capitol Hill. It’s no surprise, then, that Casino Jack shows infamous lobbyist Jack Abramoff as a wannabe movie producer whose skills in the … Read entire article »
