Sarah is like the Speaker of the House because she maintains order in her household, presides over everyone in the family, and makes the decisions of what the kids do and where they go. She also has many leadership qualities from raising her two children that she can make important, independent decisions like the Speaker has to make.
Brad Whitaker
Brad is Sarah's second husband as well as the step father to Dylan and Megan. Dusty is like the Majority Leader because him and Brad argue a lot just like the Majority and Minority parties do, and he is the representative of his ideas when debating with Sarah and Brad over the kid's lives. Brad is also a good listener and a caring person so that makes him a good collaborator which the Minority Leader has to be.
Dusty Mayron
Dusty is the biological father of Dylan and Megan Dusty is also the ex-husband of Sarah.
Dusty is like the Majority Leader because him and Brad argue a lot just like the Majority and Minority parties do, and he is the representative of his ideas when debating with Sarah and Brad over the kid's lives. He also assists Sarah (the Speaker) in making decisions for the kids, and is stubborn so a good debater.

Megan is like the Majority Whip because she gathers support for Dusty and Brad from her family like whips do in the House.

When Dusty and his second wife Karen have a son, they name him Griff. Griff is like the Majority Caucus Chair because he gives Dusty advice on what to do on how to be a father and express his opinions to Brad. He also lives in the house later in the movie so he oversees the arguments and discussions both parties (Brad and Dusty) have with each other.

Leo is the general manager at the Panda. The Panda is the radio station where Brad, and now Dusty work.

When Brad Talks to the Kids
When Brad tries to organize family events or talk to the kids about something it's usually like a long speech and is always boring, and makes the kids listen to him less. This reminds us of a filibuster.
Bedtime Scene
The bedtime scene is like a session because both Brad and Dusty are trying to crack the funnier jokes and say the right things to get the kids to like them better. This reminds us of a session because it's like the Majority and Minority party debating.
Brad and Dusty
Brad and Dusty remind us of lobbyists because they both try to influence the kids, Megan and Dylan, into favoring them more than the other. They also both work at Leo's radio station.
