Zusatztext "Henwood's wry! literary writing style makes this a satisfying and persuasive piece of obliterative prose." — Current Affairs "A solid and Persuasive guide to what has been characterized as shady or shabby or unprincipled in Clinton's political career." —Zoë Heller! New York Review of Books Informationen zum Autor Doug Henwood Klappentext Hillary Clinton is running for the presidency with a message of hope and change. But, as Doug Henwood makes clear in this concise, devastating indictment, little trust can be placed in her campaign promises. Rigorously reviewing her record, Henwood shows how Clinton's positions on key issues have always blown with the breeze of expediency, though generally around an axis of moralism and hawkishness. Without a meaningful program other than a broad fealty to the status quo, Henwood suggests, "the case for Hillary boils down to this: she has experience, she's a woman, and it's her turn."
