Preview Showdown: The Struggle Between the Gingrich Congress and the Clinton White House

Description:



The Struggle Between the Gingrich Congress and the Clinton White House Showdown
is the story of the most dramatic political rivalry in decades. The
Democratic President, brilliant but seen as indecisive and vulnerable,
is directly challenged by the equally brilliant new Republican Speaker
of the House, who seeks to complete the Reagan Revolution by repealing
the Great Society and the New Deal.

In her last book, the highly acclaimed On the Edge: The Clinton Presidency,
Elizabeth Drew took readers on a revealing tour behind the scenes of
Bill Clinton's White House during his first year and a half in office,
showing us how and why his administration failed. Then came the 1994
congressional elections, in which the Republicans gained control of the
Congress, including the House, for the first time in forty years. This
tremendous victory, long planned by Newt Gingrich, left the Democrats
stunned and confused and set the stage for the Republicans to attempt a
dramatic, possibly historic rearrangement of the country's politics.
