Game Change

I think actually reading this now rather than what it was released was a help. I was far enough away from the elections that it was more of a reminder of recent history rather than immediate rehash. A lot of “oh, I remember that” items. If you pay attention to this stuff, you probably already know the most juicy bits.

None of the protagonists come out smelling like roses, but the authors do try to redeem both candidates in the final chapter (and epilogue).
