Collision 2012 : Obama vs. Romney and the future of elections in America / Dan Balz.

Balz, Daniel J. (Author).

Summary:

Four years ago, a bright young presidential candidate named Barack Obama campaigned on a theme of hope and change and made history. Today he finds himself in another bitter, divisive presidential race but without the buzzwords. Instead, an embattled president struggles with a dysfunctionally divided Congress, the controversial healthcare bill, a decade-long war, and a stagnant economy.
