It was a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the election process and the charactars involved, and is based on 100's of interviews of people who lived the story. I think it would make a great movie!

How do they make out Sarah Palin??
She seemed like a pawn on McCain's chessboard who somehow morphed into a major chess player after the election.
