Review title: no news here
Product review: I had high hopes for this book but if you read it you will find nothing that hasn't already been reported elsewhere. Jake Tapper's Down and Dirty had everything this book does, and more. Take this book's big revelation that a Gore advisor started the rumor that Jeb and Katherine Harris were having an affair. Tapper's book already reported that. That Gore was craftily micromanaging the recount effort with an eye toward just recounting counties that were pro-Democrat--Tapper already got all that. And on and on. Sammon makes a big deal about the fact that Gore staffers were happy when they got 1,000 overseas ballots tossed out. But is it news--or surprising--that they were happy? I'm sure Jim Baker and his guys were happy when the US Supreme Court voted the way it did, but I don't need a reporter to tell me that fact as if it were a big, important, revealing secret.If you want the full story, this is not the book. What a disappointment.
