{"product_id":"cliff-schecter-the-real-mccain-9780979482298","title":"The Real McCain","description":"Thinking about voting for McCain? Read this book. Cliff Schecter's hard-hitting profile explores the gap between the public record of Senator John McCain and his media image. Drawing on a range of sources and adding his unique perspective and humor, Schecter guides the reader though McCain's long history of expedient flip-flops, especially on his signature issues of national security and campaign finance reform. Far from a straight-talking maverick, McCain emerges as a temperamental political chameleon who will do or say virtually anything to become president of the United States. On issue after issue - including the invasion and occupation of Iraq, torture, abortion, and gay rights - The Real McCain reveals a politician who started as a Goldwater Republican, experienced a brief period after sanity after his loss to George W. Bush in 2000, and began pandering to the very groups he challenged after deciding to run again in 2008.","brand":"Polipoint Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53630790205782,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/5829\/5382\/files\/product_image_9780979482298_1.jpg?v=1778657141","url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/cliff-schecter-the-real-mccain-9780979482298","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
