To work inside a political campaign is to enter a world of high drama. Reputations, personal wealth, relationships, lifelong ambitions--all are on the line. Hopes and dreams can come true or vanish forever. I don't need imagination to develop characters and situations in my stories. I just need to remember. I hope you will join me on this journey while I take you behind closed doors of American politics. — Joe Rothstein
