While this is actually the name of a book by Juliet Eilperin, when I heard the phrase tonight on The Daily Show, I thought Stewart was about to do a piece on our Georgia politics. Eilperin's book is about how partisanship and careful alliances to insure the durability of incumbents is destroying government. Sound familiar? I want to read this book!
I just went on a shopping spree at Amazon. If I'd seen this post first, I would have thrown that book into my cart. Here's what I bought:
ReplyDelete"Campaigning for Hearts and Minds : How Emotional Appeals in Political Ads Work
"Going Dirty : The Art of Negative Campaigning"
"Political Polling : Strategic Information in Campaigns
"The Manship School Guide to Political Communication"
(Only because it was from LSU Press)
"Get Out the Vote: How to Increase Voter Turnout"
"Running for Office: The Strategies, Techniques and Messages Modern Political Candidates Need to Win Elections"
Somebody please stop me.
