Book Time: Showdown

This is the first thing by David Corn I've ever read. Even at the start, I see he's a versatile writer. His
dedication is from an Ernest Hemingway novel, then the title of chapter one seems to allude to the 19th century abolitionist, Theodore Parker- who as it turns out was right about North American slavery.
The book advertises itself as the story of how our president fought the tea party and its allies after the
2010 mid-term elections.
The chapters' names then include many words used in fighting; shellacking, win, victory, strategy,battle, etc. etc.
I love the set up, right out of the gate.
