The Breakthrough: Politics and Race in the Age of Obama

hey- that sounds like an interesting book!

If you wrote a book on Obama and how great and important his campaign and accomplishments are, then were to come out with that book in the very moment the next presidency was sworn in, then which ticket would you be routing for? Which presidency would help sell more of your book?

These are all good questions. Apparently the person who wrote this book on Obama's greatness is the moderator of tomorrow's VP debate. Gwen Ifill is from the always unbiased and informative PBS. She's also been joining in the standard trash talk about Palin lately...

It should be a good debate. A woman who feminists and Obama fans want to publicly hang vs. an old boring guy with a cheerleader asking him questions.

Read the description and pre-order your own copy of the book
here.

p.s. Gwen- I hope your book does really well!

Hadn't heard about the book. Wonder who picked Ifill as moderator?

Not sure, but she didn't bother to let the committee know she had written it when they approved her.
You can also see a clip of her reaction to Palin's first speech at the convention on youtube...
it's funny. she looks like she'd rather be dead than be there.
