This is a must-read for anyone even mildly interested in the 2008 US elections. The dirty details, the true (maybe/probably/hopefully) extent of the trainwreckness of most of the major campaigns, the expletives hurled between candidates, the exposing of breasts by Edward’s wife… it’s US Weekly for nerds like me. Strong buy.

“Game Change” by Heilemann/Halperin.

(It’s called “Race of a Lifetime” in the UK where it also has a nicer cover. So there.)
