The story
The title character is a "small-town idealist who becomes a United States senator" who was elected to fill the unexpired term of the incumbent who died.
Although Smith seemed naive, he disappointed his backers.
Smith's small-town background led him to use a "low-keyed, homespun approach" to problems within his family and at the national level.
