The Battle for Congress: Iraq, Scandal, and Campaign Finance in the 2006 Election
Paradigm Publishers, July 2008, Pages: 264
This book looks at the changing of the guard in 2006 and speculates on where the system was heading in 2008. It provides an in-depth examination of the ways in which candidates, interest groups, and parties perceived their opportunities and allocated their campaign resources during the midterm elections. The role of money, which was influenced by campaign finance reform, is a special focus in this book. Political scandal figured into electoral outcomes as Republicans became identified with a “culture of corruption.”
