text: is any as upset as me that the west wing was cancelled? in a world full of crappy tv shows i had the west wing to look to and now it is gone. i too have been a fan of the show since episode 1 and am sad to see it come to an end.  it's a victim of poor ratings and liberal politics, i guess.  with the shocking passing of john spencer, it seems only right to send the show off to the horizon and salute it for what it was--a darn fine show more often than not.
