No, I don't think the Obama Administration is a real life West Wing. But Hillary Clinton recently has taken to delivering smackdowns in a Sorkin-esque style, which is fun to watch. My two favourite examples:
regarding the second one, i laughed when the chairman said he was going to give her a little bit of time to come up with her answer, but the clock in the upper right hand corner showed it being the next minute (12:54pm) when she spoke, most of the previous minute (12:53pm) having been taken up by pence. maybe i'm missing something, but if that was indeed live and wasn't edited for the video, she responded immediately.
i also love her little "you're kind of a moron" smile.
