Episode: “Does size matter?” (with Pete Buttigieg!)
The book, published in 2006, was mentioned as a cautionary example of how quickly political landscapes can change, as it failed to predict Barack Obama's rise to prominence in the 2008 election.
I'm sort of haunted by a book you and I know well, a book called the way to win that came out in 2006, about the 2008 presidential election and told everyone about what would matter and who could possibly win.
And if you read that book, you will find an area mention of Barack Obama who does not appear once in that book as an example of just how quickly things change.
Episode: “A hit Trump will holler.”
It was discussed as a 2006 book about the 2008 election, with a focus on navigating a challenging media environment, though it was also described as 'establishment garbage'.
I have referred to in my, on this podcast before this book that was written in 2006 called The Way to Win, which in most cases is a pile of hot steaming establishment garbage that should not be read in part because it was a treaties on the 2008 election that didn't include the words Barack or Obama.
Episode: “Mr. President, don’t you mean the opposite?”
It was discussed in the context of a 2008 election prediction, and Barack Obama was not mentioned in it at all.
In 2006, John Harris and Mark Halperin published the book, The Way to Win, on who had the best chance to win the 2008 election and why.
