Wriggly Rex

Ambitious young aide Ernst Funck thinks working to elect a conservative senator is a dream job-until he meets his boss, "Wriggly Rex." Rex Wrigley is an alcoholic lecher or a lecherous alcoholic, depending on his company and the time of day. When he holds a drunken press conference to roast his supporters and the press, hopeful Ernst realizes he can't win the election without putting a stop to Rex's destructive behavior.In the privacy of the Wrigley office, things are no better. The Texas millionaire who funded Rex's campaign wants his money back. One of Ernst's co-workers wants a "deeper relationship." Bunny, the office manager, is an equal-opportunity destroyer. Even Porky, Rex's own campaign strategist, makes Ernst a rival. As if Ernst needed another problem, Rex's wife Blanche and girlfriend Angel both work in the office, too.It seems there is nary a safe corner in which to hide. Ernst wants to win this campaign and show the competitive political world what he's capable of doing-but Rex and his supporting staff are making victory impossible. Rex is quite capable of ruining Ernst's career before it has even begun. Will Ernst pull out a win in spite of Rex? Or will he have to find the embarrassing witness protection program for failed campaign staffers?
