Campaign confidantes: Six perspectives on California's 2008 presidential primary
by Price, Amanda Ruth, M.A., UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA, 2008, 42 pages; 1454066

Abstract:

Political campaigns run on a mix of money, energy and strategy, but people are the key ingredient. The consultants, the state chairs, the grassroots volunteers; they're the ones who put the pieces together.

This series of six profile features takes a behind-the-scenes look at Democrats and Republicans working on the ground during the presidential primary campaigns in California. Most of all, these articles endeavor to address what draws people to the rough-and-tumble campaign lifestyle—and what it is about electoral politics that keeps them going.
