It takes place in an area of upstate New York that is a political microcosm of America. Dan Lynch takes us with him on his journey into the world of modern-day machine politics. He explores why and how intense partisanship makes it so difficult for reform-oriented candidates from outside the political system to win high public office - even when they're celebrities in their own communities. This book is a first-hand, no-holds-barred chronicle of what needs to be done if democracy is ever to keep its promises to itself and to its citizens." Quantity Available: 1.
