Game Change is a detailed account of the 2008 Presidential election and the bitter fight between the Obama and Clinton campaigns. Densely written, with first-hand remarks from staffers and other insiders, the book recalls every power play, misstep, and success each side maintained throughout the battle to win the Democratic nomination. Authors John Heilemann and Mark Halperin also touch on the McCain campaign and the further drama that resulted when Sarah Palin was selected as McCain's running mate in late August. The Palin moments are entertaining, and also prove that human beings run these political machines, and everyone is capable of making mistakes. History buffs and fans of our current President will enjoy the insider’s view in Game Change, and will be anxious to see what happens when election year rolls around again. - Kathy (Sunset)
