To me, what riles people up is the fact that Lincoln hardly gets what he wants at the end. That's one reason the show's great: it's realistic in that you could try hard to achieve something, and still come short of it. Too many shows tend to be overly optimistic in their messages, so it's great that LH is more truthful.
