95. Please ask Andy....
...what exactly he means when he says, after getting permission to speak with the Senator, he began to talk to him "about the voting issues" he found in Florida and Ohio. I mean, what did he (Andy) actually SAY? It might help us understand the Senator's being unable to "get out of the elevator fast enough" if we knew precisely what had been said to him. Also, was anyone else in the elevator? Did the Senator know who Andy is?

I'm trying to picture the encounter from the Senator's perspective; I already get Andy's perspective.
