This highly entertaining collection of true stories features tales of political ineptitude, scandal, blunder, and impropriety. For every politician trying to climb the slippery slope of success, there are half a dozen sliding down it. Whether it's Britain's Profumo-Keeler affair of the supposedly Swinging Sixties or Bill Clinton's "views" of Monica Lewinsky, you're bound to find some of your favorite political blunders. From assassination attempts to smear, innuendo, and infidelity, this book is an amusing compendium of those red-faced moments politicians would rather forget.
