Required Reading

The Newsweek insider chronicle of the campaign is out. Absolutely fascinating stuff (if you're a nerd, political scientist, or political scientist/nerd).

My favorite quote in the article came from early on the Friday morning after Obama's convention speech at Invesco Field as Obama's campaign plane had just taken off from Denver. David Axelrod made his way to the front cabin where he found Barack Obama and Joe Biden and told them that McCain had picked Palin as his running mate. Biden's immediate reaction was, "Who is Palin???"

Brilliant.
