Flanders, Laura
Finding progressive change in the most surprising places, Air America Radio host Laura Flanders explodes the myth of "red"and "blue"states. As she journeys through the heartland of the U.S.A., she discovers that people don't vote for the GOP because Republicans represent their interests, but because the Democrats can barely field a team. Adamant, opinionated, funny, and engaging, Flanders chronicles the good news she's heard from scores of voters and activists, though it rarely catches the attention of the mainstream media. 256 pp.
