The political wonk's version of US Weekly. Full of apparentlys, allegedlys and not a source in sight. It's extremely readable (how could multiple train-wrecks not be?) but I still have issues with the way the women are dealt with in the book. When Hillary Clinton talks, she is described as "whining"...
Sooo.... I'm thinking this was not a favorite book of Hilary Clinton. And McCain and Palin. And John Edwards. Obama came out of this smelling like a rose.It was just such an interesting juxtaposition of the Obama and Clinton campaigns. Clinton's seemed to be in disarray and full of infighting with n...
I found it very interesting. It's easy to get caught up in the public personas and forget that these folks are just people. Well done and entertaining as well as informative and interesting.

Catnip for a political junkie. Political sausage making in all it unglory with a fly on the wall perspective. Could not put it down. The movie should be great. The last comparable book I read was What It Takes: The Way To The White House by Richard Ben Cramer.

This one is just as good, high praise, indeed.Another great example of how we are failed by the media and need to ...
Here's your assignment. Find an old copy of The Making of The President 1960 by Theodore White then read Game Change by John Heilemann. Then write an essay on the dumbing down of America.Anyone who takes me up on the assignment will instantly realize just how little we ask of the the 21st century Am...
It was an interesting book,read easily, and there were a lot of little details that were fun. The problem I always have with books like this, though, is wondering just how accurate the stories were. While everything seemed pretty likely, I am always a little suspicious when there are so many detai...
I listened to Game Change on an audio version of the book. Much more than half the book, perhaps even as much as 75%, is devoted to the Democrat race with Obama as the main character followed by Clinton and Edwards. It covers the plans, concerns, secret meetings and deals leading up to the candidate...
