The new fall schedule will not be announced until later this month, but the DRUDGE REPORT has learned that ABC has picked up COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF, a drama following the challenges facing the first female President of the United States. ...Geena Davis? GEENA DAVIS???!!? As President of the United States?Actress Geena Davis, a Democrat political activist, will play the president.
Well, when I think of an actress with the stature to portray the first woman President, someone who can easily convey intelligence, grace, maturity, steadiness, wry humor, and a core of internal fortitude consisting of 22-gauge steel...well the name "Geena Davis" immediately springs to mind.
Does for you, too, eh?
And one wonders why commercial TV is down the sh*tter.
Feh.

It's a weird choice. Maybe age has given her some gravitas (though I doubt it). Other women I would believe in the role: Felicity Huffman, Laura Innis, Stockard Channing, oh and Debra Winger who would be great.
