Double Down exposes blunders, scuffles, and machinations far beyond the klieg lights of the campaign trail: Obama storming out of a White House meeting with his high command after accusing them of betrayal. Romneyâs mind-set as he made his controversial â47 percentâ comments. The real reasons New Jersey governor Chris Christie was never going to be Mittâs running mate. The intervention held by the presidentâs staff to rescue their boss from political self-destruction. The way the tense dĂŠtente between Obama and Bill Clinton morphed into political gold. And the answer to one of the campaignâs great mysteriesâhow did Clint Eastwood end up performing Dada dinner theater at the Republican convention?
In Double Down, Mark Halperin and John Heilemann take the reader into back rooms and closed-door meetings, laying bare the secret history of the 2012 campaign for a panoramic account of an election that was as hard fought as it was lastingly consequential.
