Which show is a more accurate representation of the US political system?

[Lurker]

For all the flaws of the idealized politics in the West Wing, it wins easily. At least it has some semblance to reality, and is not just a cartoonish parody ( don't know whether HoC intends to be the latter, but it certainly seems so at times).

Though House of Cards is not really a political show - every time their is any actual discussion of policy it feels boring, forced, or unrealistic (sometimes all three - at least that's my impression of the first two seasons). The politics of the West Wing is at least interesting at times, if somewhat hackish.
