Just as that omission is revealed, Stephen uncovers a dirty personal secret that could sink Morris' political career. Run Time: 98min.
This film is perfect for Primary season...plus most of it was filmed in Cincinnati, Ohio - home to George Clooney and the person writing this post (no relation to George Clooney, sorry to say).
