Game Change: Obama and the Clintons, McCain and Palin, and the Race of a Lifetime by John Heilemann
5.0
There is very little to say about Game Change that isn’t immediately obvious to anyone who picks up the book. Game Change chronicles the 2008 (and leadup) primary and presidential elections.
Reasonably impartial and with a good balance between professionalism and relaxed prose the authors of Game change take us through the close contest between Clinton and Obama, the bizarre humiliation of Edwards and the shock choice of Sarah Palin as VP running mate for McCain.
The book is informative and fascinating but drags slightly too long on the primary races, while interesting we all know we really want to hear about Sarah Palin and her blunders rather than a protracted battle between Clinton and Obama. (in saying that the Obama Clinton Race is probably much for interesting on a academic level, whereas its just plain fun to read about Palin’s exploits.)
Game Change is probably the best summary of the election you can find – That is on the presumption that most of the information contained within is correct, I haven’t heard too much slamming of the work, and fact checking myself is just asking to ruin the fun of reading about political controversy.
