Stand up, fight back

2004 · Book · E. J. Dionne

"The author of Why Americans Hate Politics, offers a tough critique of President George W. Bush and the Democratic opposition on the eve of a landmark presidential election - and points to a way out of cynicism and defeatism." "In describing how Democrats, moderates and liberals have failed to match Republicans and conservatives in commitment, resourcefulness, and clarity, Dionne invents what is likely to become a popular parlor game among the politically committed. In "The Wrong Stuff," he lists ten futile arguments - big versus small government, for example - that Democrats keep having with themselves. "The Right Stuff" focuses on ten arguments they should start making about taxes, business, and the role of government."--BOOK JACKET. by E. J. Dionne
