Description
“An amazing piece of work. . . . One of the best books on politics of any kind I’ve read. For entertainment value, I put it up there with Catch 22. . . . An absolutely gripping read . . . they can write.” (Clive Crook, The Financial Times )
“A smoking new book. . . . The real revelation in Game Change: Campaigns turn our politicians into lunatics.” (Tina Brown, The Daily Beast )
“I can’t put down this book!” (Stephen Colbert )
“A fascinating account. . . . Heilemann and Halperin serve up a spicy smorgasbord of observations, revelations, and allegations. . . . Game Change leaves the reader with a vivid, visceral sense of the campaign and a keen understanding of the paradoxes and contingencies of history.” (Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times )
“Everybody talked. Anybody that tells you they didn’t is lying to you.” (A former top Clinton aide, to Politico’s Ben Smith )
“The best presidential political book since What it Takes by Richard Ben Cramer and Teddy White’s books. These are the types of books that got me into politics.” (Joe Scarborough )
“A thoroughly researched, well-paced and occasionally very amusing read. . . . The result is something that conveys the feel, or perhaps more accurately the smell, of one of recent history’s most thrilling elections, and it does so better than any of the other books already on the market.” (The Economist )
“An explosive new book. . . . An absolute page turner.” (Soledad O’Brien on Larry King Live )
“You’ve got to read Game Change. . . . I read each and every word. . . . Game Change is a great book.” (Don Imus )
“Compulsively readable. Once begun, you can’t put it down. . . . Deeply and knowledgeably reported and presented with all the cool sophistication one would expect from two accomplished political reporters.” (Tim Rutten, The Los Angeles Times )
“Riveting, definitive. . . . A great campaign book. . . . Halperin and Heilemann got insiders to cough up astonishing artifacts, including emails and recordings. . . . Game Change is really interesting, and puts you deep in the middle of it.” (Kurt Andersen, Very Short List )
“The hottest book in the country.” (The Associated Press )
“The authors of Game Change succeed in creating a plausible account of the emotional tumult of the 2008 campaign as it might have been—perhaps even was—experienced by the candidates, their spouses, and their staffs.” (Hendrik Hertzberg, The New Yorker )
“Riveting. . . . Its pages brim with scandalous tidbits. . . . This is a must-read for anyone interested in the cutthroat backroom hows and whys of a presidential campaign. . . . And it doesn’t hurt that Game Change reads more bodice-ripper than Beltway.” (Tina Jordan, Entertainment Weekly )
“Heilemann and Halperin have conducted hundreds of interviews to provide the inside story of the 2008 campaign. . . . It vividly shows how character flaws large and small caused Obama’s opponents to self-destruct.” (Jacob Heilbrunn, The New York Times Book Review )

Présentation de l'éditeur
In Game Change, John Heilemann and Mark Halperin, two of the country’s leading political reporters, use their unrivaled access to pull back the curtain on the Obama, Clinton, McCain, and Palin campaigns.
Based on hundreds of interviews with the people who lived the story, Game Change is a reportorial tour de force that reads like a fast-paced novel. Character-driven and dialogue-rich, replete with extravagantly detailed scenes, it’s an intimate portrait of some of the most powerful and fascinating figures in American life—the occasionally shocking, often hilarious, ultimately definitive account of the campaign of a lifetime.

Ce commentaire fait référence à cette édition : Game Change LP: Obama and the Clintons, McCain and Palin, and the Race of a Lifetime (Broché)
Read this book and weep for our country and for a world that needs someone capable and caring in the White House. And when you finish, blame a media who never told us what Obama was like. Others knew. Bill Clinton had this to say during the campaign on page 5:
'But mostly Bill was enraged with the media, which he believed had brutalized his wife white treating Obama with kid gloves. This is bullshit, he said, "The guy's a phony. He has no experience, he has no record; he's not nearly ready to be commander in chief."' That's why I like to remind people that the same media who told us that Obama was highly capable has also tried to convince us that Palin isn't. Now look at what's happening. We have a bumbling, fumbling President who's obsessed with matching himself against the losing candidate for Vice-President. That's never happened before. And the guy is utterly clueless about how to deal with rogue states like Iran. Are you ready for terrorists with nukes? Two problems with this book: 1. The authors seem obsessed with claiming that something unprecedented took place in the 2008 elections. That's hardly true. We elected someone as corrupt with Harding, someone as arrogant with LBJ, someone as dishonest with Nixon, and someone as incompetent with Carter. In this case, we simply have all four rolled up in one dreadful package. 2. Don't expect the HarperCollins hardback version to last very long. It has the flimsiest paper I've ever seen in a hardback, thin and easily torn like newsprint. You can see through to the print on the other side. It's a cost-saving scheme like the paper in cheap, mass-market paperbacks. The publisher must have decided to save a few cents at our expense. --Michael W. Perry, editor of Chesterton on War and Peace: Battling the Ideas and Movements that Led to Nazism and World War II Aidez d'autres clients à trouver les commentaires les plus utiles
