In The Running Mate, Joe Klein—the New Yorker Washington correspondent who catapulted into the public eye as the "Anonymous" author of Primary Colors—takes the listener on an exuberant, wicked, and unerringly wise political journey with Senator Charlie Martin, a decorated veteran of the war in Vietnam. The experience of combat and his easy dominance of home-state politics have made Charlie fearless. He's a hot, if occasionally reckless, political property—dashing, honorable, and irreverent. And then Charlie's life begins to fall apart
