14. Callista's Blank Stare

Every time I'd see Callista she has a blank, robotic stare. I thought it was due to being a typical flighty rightwing nut woman... but perhaps it was because she knew this bankruptcy was on the horizon. Maybe while looking out over crowds of ingnorant, intolerant rightwing nuts she was thinking: "if these trailer-park supporters just knew how bankrupt we are"....

these guys have their buddies to help them out of any predicament. and calista will hang around long enough to get something out of him. besides, he probably put his assets in her name before the campaign.
