Description: It's Even Worse Than It Looks (Revised and Expanded Edition) by Thomas E. Mann, Norman J. Ornstein Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description "[Mann and Ornstein] have done the public a great service-and have been much braver than many in the media, the think tanks, or Congress-in using their personal credibility to clearly describe what has happened to American politics in recent years, and who is primarily to blame."-Ezra Klein, New York Review of Books Publisher Description Hyperpartisanship has gridlocked the American government. Congresss approval ratings are at record lows, and both Democrats and Republicans are disgusted by the governments inability to get anything done. In Its Even Worse than It Looks, Congressional scholars Thomas E. Mann and Norman J. Ornstein present a grim picture of how party polarization and tribal politics have led Congress- and the United States- to the brink of institutional failure.In this revised edition, the authors bring their seminal book up-to-date in a political environment that is more divided than ever. The underlying dynamics of the situation- extremist Republicans holding government hostage to their own ideological, anti-government beliefs- have only gotten worse, further bolstering their argument that Republicans are not merely ideologically different from Democrats, but engaged in a unique form of politics that undermines the system itself. Without a fundamental change in the character and course of the Republican Party, we may have a long way to go before we hit rock bottom. Author Biography Thomas E. Mann is the W.
