Number-cruncher Ned Newly is a complete unknown with a paralyzing fear of public speaking and no political instincts - he certainly doesn't want to be Governor. But when his boss gets booted after a scandal, Ned is catapulted into the public eye. With the election just days away, his oddball team of consultants scramble to give him a political makeover. The Outsider is a hilarious, non-partisan send-up of modern American politics and an inspirational tribute to democracy.
