Great Book for the final month of the campaign!! Post Books here!
Post your ideas for other books here. I just wanted to get the word out about

"don't think of an elephant! Know your values and frame the debatee"
"the essential guide for progressives"
by George Lakoff

I'm about halfway through with this one. I've never read anythign like it but it's really opened my eyes to a lot of things. Including: how the Republicans are able to successfully convince voters to vote against their own self interests.

4. Propaganda
by Edward Bernays.

Available (was anyway) at Amazon and you can link there from the home page (I believe) and some of the money goes to DU. (But strangely enough I am having problems with Amazon.)

This seems to be the link without going through the DU home page -- which please do.
