I had always found the show dated (Except in its initial run of course) until this last Decade. sure the fashion and technology had changed but suddenly a lot of the political issues became very familiar. Change Vietnam to Iraq, and Nixon (pre watergate) to Bush and the show seemed to become relevant again.
The Economic down turn, and change from republicans to Democrats with Mike having to defend the new president when he seemed to be struggling with a failing economy.
Am I crazy or does any one else see the parallels
