Dick Morris sizes up the campaign of a lifetime: Condoleezza Rice versus Hillary Clinton.
Who will be president in 2008? Many believe that the White House is Hillary's to lose, but as longtime strategists Dick Morris and Eileen McGann explain in Condi vs. Hillary, the former first lady's bid for the Oval Office is vulnerable to a challenge from a most unexpected quarter: the Bush administration's brilliant and charismatic secretary of state, Condoleezza Rice.
Blending insider insight and political foresight, Morris and McGann offer an informed and fascinating look at this coming political showdown. Contrasting the careers of these women, the authors reveal key differences-noting how Hillary's rise was marked by her ambitious attachment to an up and coming governor, whereas Condi's was defined by her broad and deep talents that helped her earn her own way. Morris and McGann also scrutinize each woman's time in office, providing a sobering look at Hillary's record of underachievement both as first lady and as a senator from New York, while demonstrating the maturation and growth that Condi has undergone since entering the Bush administration.
Controversial, perceptive, and entertaining, Condi vs. Hillary explores the possibilities and the ramifications of a political race that would change the face of American politics forever.
