I thought was great, but then I'm a big West Wing fan and this was pretty much Abraham Lincoln's 'West Wing.'  I pictured Sorkin in a theater somewhere saying, "Funny, I don't remember writing this."  (to be fair, this was better written than most Sorkin though, but there was a lot of banter)  And it doesn't talk down
