Shattered: Inside Hillary Clinton's Doomed Campaign by Jonathan Allen
So, so, so depressing. Detailed account of no one in charge/everyone in charge/too many kids/too many jaded, out of touch people running the show. Worth a read, if only to try to get the election out of your system.
Very admiring look at HRC's time as Secretary of State. Useful insights into the department and Hillary's (tough-minded) role in reshaping it. My attention wandered towards the end. Much ado about 2016.
The book was an interesting and little known analysis of the abortive Presidential campaign of Hillary Clinton. Many of the architects of her defeat and unforced errors were little known. I gave the book only three stars since the author seemed to have some axes of his own to grind.
“Hillary didn’t have a vision to articulate. And no one else could give one to her. In fact, the more people she assigned to the task of setting the tone for her campaign, the more muddled her message became”
― Jonathan Allen, Shattered: Inside Hillary Clinton's Doomed Campaign
This was a decent read. It is long though and after awhile I just did not want to go on reading, (I did read till the end but required several breaks.)
I think I am getting burned out on political reads. The book does not tell us much we did not know in regards to Clinton and several times the book had me shaking my head at pretty much everyone involved in BOTH of the 2016 Presidential campaigns. A good book, a decent read but sometimes got to much even for a political junkie like myself.… (more)
