Mark Halperin and John Heilemann set the national conversation on fire with their bestselling account of the 2008 presidential election, Game Change. In Double Down, they apply their unparalleled access and storytelling savvy to the 2012 election, rendering an equally compelling narrative about the circuslike Republican nomination fight, the rise and fall of Mitt Romney, and the trials, tribulations, and Election Day triumph of Barack Obama. On Nov. 21, 2013, Halperin and Heilemann joined us to talk about their new book and each took time to tell the IOP what politics means to them.
