Game Change: Obama and the Clintons, McCain and Palin, and the Race of a Lifetime by John Heilemann

3.0

It was interesting to find out what happened behind the scenes during the 2008 election. It doesn't exactly paint Clinton, Palin, McCain or Edwards in a positive light. Looking back, it's amazing how badly run McCain's campaign was. He was lucky to get as far as he did but his team really dropped the ball on picking Palin as his running mate.

Clinton is depicted as spiteful and narrowminded. Entitled to power, out of touch...

Honestly, as a European, it's astounding to see what kind of knuckleheads actually get into office in the US. The American political system badly needs to be replaced by something more dynamic, less money-driven, something where there is more than two big choices.
