SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Examines one of the dirtiest presidential campaigns in American history. The author suggests that both Democrats and Republicans sensed a political system falling apart, as voters drifted from being affiliated to a specific party to voting according to a candidate's stand on a particular issue.
