Taken by suprise by the wave of nothing short of a declaration of complete opposition to Bill's position of influence, he allowed his posture to notch back a little. He should have known that prick Malone would pull something like this, but through someone who Bill only faintly recognized from a movie he saw while taking Allison out? Furthermore, what business did this man have within his district besides likely gifting candidates like Malone a big round of checks before early voting started?

As if that wasn't already bad enough, he was also mentioning how he had his sights set on Mayor Clarke as well. While Bill had been spending the last couple weeks holding rallies non-stop across the district, he knew Clarke was none the wiser to any outside meddling, thus, doing the bare minimum to retain office.

"Mister Jones," Bill leaned himself forward, "I should have no explaining to do to people of the likes of you. You see, I can't expect a man who recently became infatuated with the idea of a little 'celebrity activism' to understand the processes of our government, let alone politics." He spoke more condescendingly and with confidence as he went on.

"When you speak of the decline of my district's local economy, a talking point constantly repeated by our mutual friend, he needs to make sure he informs concerned citizens like yourself that such crisis has been long developing," he partly turned his visual attention to nowhere in particular, doing so just to keep his cool, "Unfortuately, our current leaders at the state and national capitals have decided to cut corners on public programs as well as public saftey in favor of chasing some older ideas."

Bill pushed the paperwork he had on his own desk to the side, "I know you're not from around here but I'll let you know that I am deeply troubled by the lack of action, besides my own, on the issues that effect the people I represent. To tell you the truth," he quipped, "I feel like the volunteering me and my wife do at the soup kitchen has done more than the last months of this session."

"So in a way," he smirked, "I do agree on reform: just not in the direction they want it."
