The candidate

"The Candidate reveals what accounted for John Kerry's strong, decisive showing in every political contest since Iowa and why none of those factors was evident in the pre-Iowa polls. It explains how the Kerry campaign staged its surprise turn-around, what voters need to know about what goes on behind the scenes in the Kerry war room, and how the campaign is preparing for the run from July to November. Granted unprecedented access to Kerry's family, his campaign team, advisors, and members of his inner circle, Alexander sheds new light on the man who would be president."--BOOK JACKET.
