Many political folks have been clamoring for an impeachment and it looks like ABC is willing to provide just that. While it appears President George W. Bush is safe for now, pretend President Mackenzie Allen has reportedly received the official verdict.

She's been impeached and will be yanked from ABC's Fall schedule.
Zap2it reports:
The pulling of "Commander In Chief" probably spells doom for the show's chances of renewal and puts a cap on a remarkable slide that sent it from sparkly new hit to probable lame duck in eight months.
The series began life as the most-watched new show of the fall, and star Geena Davis won a Golden Globe in January for her portrayal of Mackenzie Allen, the first female president. Behind-the-scenes upheaval and a steep ratings decline, however, conspired to bring the show down.
The network says the final three episodes of the season will likely air during the summer, but no dates have been set.

I watched the show one time and was unimpressed. If anything the worries that it would be biased and too political didn't play out in the episode. Bias wasn't the problem - at least for me. The "B" word I would use is boring.
I am not surprised it didn't survive.
