Mark Halperin is an editor-at-large and senior political analyst for Time and political analyst for ABC News.
His new book, Game Change, written with John Heilemann, immediately became a No. 1 Bestseller on Amazon.com and NY Times #1 Bestseller. Game Change is a sensational account of the 2008 presidential race.
He is also the author of The Undecided Voter's Guide to the Next President: Who the Candidates Are, Where They Come From, and How You Can Choose. In addition to extensive coverage in the media, he has given lectures at such national organizations as the YMCA and American Israel Public Affairs Committee.
In The Undecided Voter's Guide Halperin provides a political expert's guide to the issues and debates facing the undecided voter in the 2008 national election. With no incumbent or clear front runner in the field, even the most conscientious voters can be forgiven if they are having a hard time telling the 2008 presidential candidates apart without a scorecard. He examines the candidates' biographies, policies, political skills, and presidential prospects, with sharp analysis and his trademark accessible, often humorous style. The seven candidates Halperin covers in detail are Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, John Edwards, Mitt Romney, Rudy Giuliani, John McCain, Fred Thomson, plus his insight into the potential dark horse candidates.
