Negative Positive
Title: tiresome and trite
Review: i cannot tell you how boring, boooooring, i found this book. for a non-american forced by proximity if by nothing else to keep track of america and fascinated by american politics in the same way i might be by bear-baiting, this book is emblematic of american politics. here is a relatively intelligent former-participant in american politics, able, one supposes, to provide some sort of disinterested perspective, who, rather than add anything to the discourse, preaches to the converted; republicans will love this book (for it's title if nothing else) and democrats won't. anybody else, looking to understand, not polemicize (is that a word?), will be BORED.
Is the review positive or negative?
