[JEFFERSON]With his own faction

[MADISON]He’s very attractive in the North. New Yorkers like his chances

[JEFFERSON]He’s not very forthcoming on any particular stances

[MADISON]Ask him a question: it glances off, he obfuscates, he dances

[JEFFERSON]And they say I’m a Francophile: at least they know I know where France is!

[MADISON]Thomas that’s the problem, see, they see Burr as a less extreme you

[JEFFERSON]Ha!

[MADISON]You need to change course, a key endorsement might redeem you

[JEFFERSON]Who did you have in mind?

[MADISON]Don’t laugh

[JEFFERSON]Who is it?

[MADISON]You used to work on the same staff

[JEFFERSON]Whaaaat
