"Oh, Thank you. Gosh. No way.
Thank you to the Emmy voters for this -- promotion! This is extraordinary,
really, Aaron Sorkin, you have written a character with such respect and
intelligence and wit. She inspires me. There isn't a day that does by that I
don't realize how lucky I am to be a part of the West Wing. My cast members,
you, I love you, your generosity, and your spirit, both professionally when we
are working, and personally. You are the most amazing. Tommy Schlamme, Alex
Graves for you incredibly directing and trusting me. I adore you. To the
entire West Wing crew and family -- (stutters nervously, turns to Kelsey) Hi
Kelsey how are you doing? -- My family and friends (she rattles off a
list I honestly had know idea what she said). My family and friends I said
that, but I have to apologize to them, thank you for putting up with me and
that I love despite the fact I never see you. Thank you (she says something
like "peace rest?" not sure. She was extremely nervous, she stuttered a lot
and had a hard time getting it out. She leaves parading her Emmy above
her head.)
