Todd Whitman, the Republican Governor of New Jersey, was one of the most successful female politicians in America. In this book, Art Weissman tells the story of Whitman's meteoric rise to national prominence and her eventual bid for the Republican nomination for President of the United States. Weissman discusses Whitman's background and her early political career in New Jersey. He also details her successful tenure as Governor of New Jersey, during which she enacted a number of conservative reforms. Whitman's bid for the Presidency was a close one, but she ultimately lost to Bill Clinton. Weissman argues that Whitman's loss was largely due to her poor campaign strategy and her inability to connect with American voters.; 8vo; 290 pages.
