What It Takes: The Way to the White House"Quite possibly the finest book on presidential politics ever written, combining meticulous reporting and compelling, at times soaringly lyrical, prose." Cleveland Plain Dealer An American Iliad in the guise of contemporary political reportage, What It Takes penetrates the mystery at the heart of all presidential campaigns: How do presumably ordinary people acquire that mixture of ambition, stamina, and pure shamelessness that makes a true candidate?
"Quite possibly the finest book on presidential politics ever written, combining meticulous reporting and compelling, at times soaringly lyrical, prose." -- Cleveland Plain Dealer An American Iliad in the guise of contemporary political reportage, What It Takes penetrates the mystery at the heart of all presidential campaigns: How do presumably ordinary people acquire that mixture of ambition, stamina, and pure shamelessness that makes a true candidate? As he recounts the frenzied course of the 1988 presidential race -- and scours the psyches of contenders from George Bush and Robert Dole to Michael Dukakis and Gary Hart -- Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Richard Ben Cramer comes up with the answers, in a book that is vast, exhaustively researched, exhilarating, and sometimes appalling in its revelations.Binding Type: Paperback

Great throw blanket with lots of fuzz
Color: Pink Ribbed, Size: Throw(50"x60"), Color: Pink Ribbed, Size: Throw(50"x60")
Very soft and cozy throw blanket, very pretty light pink color. It's big enough for one person like most throw blankets. Crazy coupon lady cued me into a discount so I got for a great price. My only complaint is that it leaves fuzzies everywhere- I highly recommend washing it before using- see pictures. Over all though a great throw blanket - soft and breathable fabric- worth the cost, but I've never seen a blanket throw so many fuzzies out of the package. Recommended, unless you're wearing a black suit.

Great price for such a warm, soft blanket.
Color: White Ribbed, Size: Queen(90"x90")
Super soft blanket that I lay across my bed but I have taken it on road trips to snuggle up with in the car and will use it when curling up to watch a good movie. Not very thick but is certainly warm. I ordered white and I absolutely love it. The texture adds nice contrast to my comforter.
