内容简介 在线阅读本书
《奥巴马凭什么赢》聚焦于奥巴马如何实现自身飞跃以及使其成为美国政坛史上耀眼新星的哪些人、那些事、那些新技术手段……自1984年以来,《新闻周刊》(Newsweek)就因深刻与及时的美国总统竞选全程跟踪报道而闻名于世。在每次大选开始的前一年,周刊的特派记者就开始追踪报道共和党和民主党的总统候选人。《新闻周刊》对共和党和民主党承诺,在大选结果揭晓前前绝不透露候选人的竞争手段与策略。作为交换条件,周刊记者获得特许报告通道——可以全天候不分日夜追踪候选人,参加竞选团队的内部会议,了解相关报道的真实内幕,披露选举中的绝密报告。在《奥巴马凭什么赢》中,《新闻周刊》特派记者埃文·托马斯将同你一起分享这次美国总统大选背后鲜为人知的故事,真实再现河马精英奥巴马的异军突起、奥巴马和希拉里之间的白热化竞争、白发英雄麦凯恩的卷土重来、佩林的意外杀人,直至奥巴马胜出的始末。书中传神地刻画了奥巴马团队的精诚团结、麦凯恩团队的混乱管理以及希拉里团队成员的彼此中伤。
《奥巴马凭什么赢》将为你揭开一个秘密——奥巴马凭什么赢! Since 1984, Newsweek has been renowned for its vivid, in-depth special election coverage of the ordeal of running for the presidency. A year before the election, Newsweek assigns reporters to get inside the campaigns of the Republican and Democratic candidates. Newsweek promises not to publish any information until after the votes are cast, and in exchange, the reporters receive remarkable access. They travel with the candidates, are there at crucial turning points and confidential meetings, and uncover stories not covered in day-to-day reporting. In this book, a compelling narrative by Evan Thomas, Newsweek shares the inside stories from one of the most exciting elections in recent history, illuminating the personalities and events that influenced the outcome, and taking stock of the key players and key issues for the new administration. This will be an absorbing read for anyone interested in American politics.

美国前任总统发动了战争,犯的不仅一个错字了得;继任者说要改变,一句口号成就一位总统。人们就这样把希望寄托给奥巴马,美国的责任就这样排解推脱,一推六二五了。美国实在是高,奥巴马真的会玩。

Review Alan Brinkley, "New York Times Book Review," January 18, 2009
"For sheer speed and competence, the most impressive of these recent books is Evan Thomas's "Long Time Coming," compiled from the reporting of the political writers of Newsweek (a magazine for which I occasionally write). A perceptive, smoothly written, and generally fair minded account of both presidential campaigns, it is, nevertheless, a contribution to the creation of the superhero image that has surrounded Obama over the last six months."
Shelf Awareness, January 7, 2009
"Briskly told, entertaining."
Donna Seaman, starred "Booklist" review
"An adroitly distilled chronicle of the 2008 presidential campaign and the election of Barack Obama....This easily devoured, crisply anecdotal account, spiked with revealing, side-of the-mouth comments, charts the most cautious and reckless of political maneuverings and provides in-action portraits of the major players, both obvious and behind-the-scenes....Thomas writes that Obama, an avid reader and gifted writer, sees himself as 'a figure out of literature, ' and, indeed, real-life stories don't get more compelling than this."

"A clear, concise, and fast read...The editors did a fantastic job weaving together a storyline that is both clear and compelling. It is all here, the calm of the Obama campaign, the dysfunction and infighting of the Clinton campaign, and the McCain campaign's constant internal battle over competing directions and narratives...We all know how the story of the 2008 election ended. Thefun in this book is the behind the scenes account of how we got there."
