Three weeks to the Iowa Cascus

Zoey was shaking hands as she stood outside of the shopping center on this cold winter day. Soon after her announcement her numbers dropped and she was fourth in a 5 person race.

THe people shook her hand but there eyes said that they knew that she had no chance. Soon after she got into her car and she looked at Donna.

"I can see it in there eyes. They think that I have no chance." Zoey says.

"DO you believe it?" Donna asks.

"No" Zoey says. Donna looks into her eyes.

"Don't lie to me. The reason why they thinlk that you can't win is because you believe it." DOnna says.

"FINE. I see the number's. I am 4th here in Iowa and I am second in my own home state. How can I win this. And I know that the staff you hired believes it to." Zoey says.

Donna nods her head.

"The reason is that I haven't seen the flame in your eyes. You have to show the people that you deserve this office." DOnna says.

"WHat can I do to get it Donna?" Zoey asks her campaign manager.

"I can't answer that. Only you can?" Donna responds.

"I got an idea. But it is risky." ZOey says.

"What is it?" Donna asks scared.

"Fire the staff. Except for you they don't believe in me. Lets shake things up." ZOey suggests.

"All right. WHo do we get to replace them>" Donna asks.

ZOey smiles. She reaches for an old photo. She hands it to DOnna.

"I want them."

DOnna looks at the picture which was of her father and his staff.

"Lets reunite the team that elected my father."

Donna reacts.
