I had high hopes for this book, but ultimately, was disappointed. I don't think any thoughtful, logical person would have blamed McClellan for the lies he disseminated for Bush and company. But after he found out, why didn't he resign and blow the whistle? He has plenty of connections in Texas ( he's Dean Keeton's grandson, for pity's sake !!! ) and could have found another job quickly.
McClellan's book is too little, too late. It's just the whining apologia of another "good ol' boy".

Still don't know "What Happened" after reading this book (like why Bush went to war against Iraq... the author is just speculating). But, the lecture on the permanent campaign and how partisan politics is crippling the effectiveness of our government is worthwhile.
