I think it will. Thanks for the link.
Hah…was trying to figure out what Olay had to do with anything for a second there…
Well so much for the thought that we had seen the last of politics. But on the upside we have Presidentish Lee.
Probably another dream sequence…
With Lee and Rosalyn addressing each others short comings, I wonder if “No Exit” is a reference to the play by Jean Paul Sartre.

I’ve been wondering about that connection, too, but I have no idea how it would play out. “Hell is other people”?
No Exit - Sartre? I was also thinking that. 
If you think of the way the fleet has been treating itself lately, though, it kind of makes sense. Sadly enough. I wonder what they’re going to do to our characters to make it even worse…
You haven’t met my mother in law.
Is Lee now the Vice President as the only politician left?
Who will he pick for the Quorum?
chant Romo…Romo…Romo…Romo
It’s utterly exasperating that she won’t give up the Presidency.
It’s the whole “I don’t want it but YOU can’t have it either” mentality. She’s like a four year-old sometimes.
I think that she is arranging for an orderly transfer of power to Lee. After all, she says “it’s time”. (Did you notice that Mary O’C had modulated her voice, so that she sounds quite ill?)
No, not a “I don’t want it but YOU can’t have it either” mentality. She’s keeping the title so the transition to Lee as president is easier on people. And like she says, sometimes Lee doesn’t do that smart thing. She needs to watch him in action a bit.

While I get that she wants to transfer Lee into power (despite an obvious conflict of interest, we keep on seeing Lee thrust into power alongside his very own father), taking a siesta from being president and leaving nothing but a vaccuumn in her wake isn’t the way to do it.
That’s why she’s naming Lee as VP, just so there won’t be a power vacuum. The previous vacuum that resulted from Laura’s unstable response to finding a destroyed Earth was also partially Zarek’s fault. As VP he had the responsibility to step up and implement the policies that she would have advocated. Instead he chose to sabotage the administration from the inside…
Yeah, I tend to think she’s leaning more that way as well. Plus, if she appoints Lee VP and then steps down, it’ll be a repeat of the back-room deal she made with Zarek right after New Caprica. Now is probably not the best time to start overtly flouting democracy again. Although, I’d bet Lee would probably get elected in his own right if they held an election, because who else is there with any political experience left? Baltar?
“You’re so bent on doing the right thing, you don’t do the smart thing.”
Heh. She basically just basically told Lee, “Look, don’t pull a Gaeta, okay?”
Sounds like it.
I don’t think anyone is going to raise their voice towards the Admiral in the CIC in a while even to holler at someone behind him.
