Here Stanley seems to be claiming that Thompson is some sort of traitor to the flailing TV show by leaving it at a time when the producers might need him and that this move might make people doubt his character. Think about it: McLean Stevenson never became President either.

I know, Adlai, not McLean. It just seemed to go with this thread.

Think about it: McLean Stevenson never became President either.Funny thing, McLean Stevenson started out in politics working for his second cousin (once removed) Adlai's campaign and got sidetracked by the bright lights of Hollywood.
Judging by the characters McLean played, show business may have benefited by his decision: politics certainly did.
