"If Machiavelli and Sun-tzu came back today as political strategists, they'd sound a lot like Carville and Begala. There are no two people I'd rather have in my foxhole." - Former President Bill Clinton. "Whether from a Republican or a Democrat, and whether the venue is politics or business, sound strategy is sound strategy. Begala and Carville have collected a wealth of powerful insights in this book." - Newt Gingrich, former Speaker of the House. "Carville asked me to blurb this book. He doesn't know me from Adam. He kissed my ass. I read the manuscript. (I planned to skim it - I ended up inhaling every word and missing a few Sunday NFL games.) I love this book. I'm going to buy fifty copies - at retail - and send 'em all to my CEO friends. There's real wisdom here - 1,000 miles from the usual self-help crap. Does it fit the business world? 100 percent. After all, every world is eventually about getting tough stuff done - that is, hardball politics. Bravo!" - Tom Peters, author of In Search of Excellence. "The political strategists who directed the Clinton campaign's War Room reveal the lessons and secrets from their hard-fought battles - and how to use these highly effective strategies for success in everyday life. James Carville and Paul Begala have waged political war all across America and on three continents. They've won some of the most spectacular political victories of the twentieth century and lost a few campaigns too. Along the way, they've learned a few lessons. Some sound simple, like "Never Quit," some comic, like "Kiss Ass," and some are more complicated and nuanced, like "Strategy Ain't Tactics." But each lesson contains tried-and-true wisdom, illustrated with colorful stories from long political experience - many never told before: Find out how Carville's mother, Miz Nippy, used a bass boat to "frame the debate" in selling encyclopedias. Discover what success secret Hillary Rodham Clinton and Tom DeLay share. Learn the War Room tricks for sharpening your message and delivering the perfect sound bite . And much more. Whether you are a senior executive or a secretary, a political junkie or the president of the United States, the rules to live by can be found in Buck Up, Suck Up. and Come Back When You Foul Up." - from the inner front jacket flap.
