Chapter 1264

"Yes, it's a pity that there is a few votes. Maybe this is God's arrangement..."

Underwood's voice was still firm, optimistic and magnetic, "I? Ha ha, soon, I know that in any case, I have to give everyone an account before January 1st. "

He didn't answer the question directly. He was very happy to hear song Ya offer to continue to support him, "thank you, aplus, er I haven't followed the entertainment news recently. Will you come to Washington to perform? "

"That's too bad. What's the number of Chicago yard?" He picked up the pen and immediately put it down again? I can't. I can't leave this year Yes, the Senate vote will be held as soon as January next year, but that has nothing to do with me. "

"Is it on TV? live broadcast? You sold Chicago to HBO? OK, ha ha, I'll see it. "

"OK, see you then."

The atmosphere in the party whip's office was much more depressing than his optimistic tone. As soon as he hung up the phone, his wife, Claire, across the desk, asked, "do we need to worry?"

“APLUS？ No, he will continue to pay next year. " He replied.

"Oh? What's wrong with him that we don't know? " Asked Clare.

"No, he's almost invincible, as long as he doesn't make fundamental mistakes."

Young three billion millionaire, black light, ethnic idols, multi habitat superstars, Hollywood players, Internet industry allies, this year began to have unparalleled popularity in the world, and is a strong supporter of Gore, who has a high voice two years later. Some time ago, he played a black face and helped some people in Washington knock a lot of money from Lazarenko, including FBI Director Frith whose position was in danger But Underwood didn't want to say that to his wife.

"Well."

Claire didn't ask. The public support of aplus has an indicative effect. She checked her little book with satisfaction. "Then the rest are pathetic fence riders. You can't lose your position. It will cause a major blow to our career."

Underwood didn't listen to her this time. "I have to keep my face, Claire. Sometimes it's not a bad thing to retreat, like Dunkirk."

"Before that, did you work 100 percent for it?" Clare asked coldly.

"I'm doing my best, almost, just a little bit, and I won't be lenient to those who run for tickets." Underwood squeezed his index finger and thumb together.

"How about resigning first and then letting your colleagues in the party retain you?" Claire has an idea.

Underwood, of course, was reluctant to leave. He snapped, "we're on the same page."

"Who's right? "Dick giffat, chairman of the donkey Party National Committee?"

Asked Clare. Underwood didn't answer. She looked back at Doug, the chief of staff on the other side of the sofa.

"Dirk GIFTER won't help. We've tried to take his seat in Parliament (Dirk GIFTER is also the majority leader of the house of Representatives). He's very vindictive."

"Hoo..."

"It should have been Dick giffat who went to bet with Newt Gingrich that their status was equal. He was also responsible for the impeachment."

"Who knew there was an m-fxxk damn blue dress."

Said Underwood, gritting his teeth.

When he thought of this big oolong, he could not regret it. He thought it was a risk-free political show. If he performed well, maybe he could go further. Who knows if he jumped too high It's bad luck to be trapped by the big commander who swore that he would not clean his mouth even if he ate secretly.

"There are not many people who are qualified to retain you. Is not the only one left is the current commander..." Claire frowned.

Underwood nodded. "I'm asking Doug to contact the White House office and try to find a chance to meet him alone today. We're waiting for a call."

"He doesn't want to see you?" The wife is always sharp.

"The commander-in-chief was very dissatisfied with the fact that we rushed back to Chicago at the critical moment to conduct a personal campaign when we voted last time." Doug answered on behalf of the Lord.

"Ha Claire is not satisfied with the light hiss, "we do not first keep their seats in parliament, he will lose even worse."

"There are not many reasonable politicians." Underwood grinned bitterly.

"By the way, where did your opponent, the guy sitting on the couch all day in a daze, raise so much money?"

When it comes to this, Claire is very confused.

"Normally, the elephant party is making trouble for me. Most of his money comes from several agricultural associations in Illinois."

Underwood raised his hand. "Don't show any resentment. Claire, I don't want to be seen as a cautious eye for revenge after winning the election. That's it."

"I will not."

Claire closed the book. "Well, how long will our hard times last?"

Even if he keeps the post of Party whip, his momentum is certainly not as strong as before. Before, he was expected to launch an impact on dick giffat, the leader of the majority party in the house of Representatives. That is the second figure of the donkey party in the house of Representatives. The first one is Speaker Tom Foley. The party whip can only rank third, and its power is far inferior."Two years? I'll speed up my approach to gore. " Answered Underwood.

"OK, it looks like I'm going back to Chicago to lay off staff..." Claire gets up.

"Thank you for your support, Claire." Underwood hugged his wife. "It won't be long..."

Doug's cell phone rang, and he hung up a few seconds later. "Oval Office." presentation.

Underwood immediately followed him out. "Wait a minute." Clare stopped him and helped with his suit. "My husband is a strong man. Don't let him think you are cowardly."

"I will not."

Underwood smiles confidently. Doug opens the door and Claire watches him leave for the White House.

After the impeachment vote, the house of Representatives did not have a big deal. There were few people on the way. The staff of the Capitol building, mainly the staff and employees of the congressmen's offices, watched him quietly.

"Whether Underwood will fulfill his promise to resign" is a hot topic recently. Everyone is guessing whether he will continue to be shameless. But there is no shameless politician. He doesn't care about the gossip of the outside world. When we get through the crisis, people here still have to look at the color of the party whip, and no one will mention it at that time.

He said hello to all kinds of people gently. He kept his manners well.

Before being led into the Oval Office, he tidied up his tie, cleared his throat and stepped in.

"Mr. dangbian, please sit down."

The absolute confidant of the great commander and his wife has been promoted to director of the general office of the White House and senior policy adviser. Podesta, who is jokingly known as the Prime Minister of the United States, warmly received him.

"Thank you." Underwood shook hands with each other, then sat down on the sofa in front of the commander's desk. "Is he still busy?" Before he saw the grand commander himself, Podesta was the only one in the room.

"Yes, we are in a mess."

Podesta sat opposite him with a wry smile. "Today's conversation is just you and me, Underwood."

In a flash of mood, he understood the choice of the commander, "Oh?" Forced to squeeze out a smile, his options are not lowly entangled in this one, generously made a gesture, "you please say."

"All right."

"I am very disappointed with the result of the vote on the 11th. Some people in our party shamefully and persistently engaged in Party strife and criticism made a deal with the elephant party, which seriously endangered the prosperity and stability of the lighthouse. I am ashamed to be associated with them..."

A few days later, Underwood appeared in the news. His wife, Claire, was standing beside him in a white dress. He spoke fiercely and coldly: "therefore, I will personally resign from the post of whip of the house donkey party, which will take effect on January 1, 1999. I will devote more energy and time to serving my constituency and accompanying my wife and family..."

"Thank you, thank you."

He tucked his speech into his suit pocket, hugged Claire and waved to the camera and the audience.
