Third Party: Volume II: Strange Bedfellows

Starting in the Middle, the first volume in the Third Party series, was originally published in 2010. Since that time, the level of dysfunction and polarization in the political system and government has intensified and the public’s desire for an effective, competitive third party is rapidly growing. Yet, nothing changes.

Volume II, Strange Bedfellows, examines the twisted thinking of modern day Democrats and Republicans that it is more important to get elected than it is to govern responsibly. Focusing on the evils of win-at-all-costs elections and the role decennial redistricting plays in protecting incumbency, the story sheds light on the legislative process and how policy goals take a back seat to political dynasties.

This political thriller is again cloaked in suspense revolving around the diabolical DNC Chairman, Eddie Cobb. As the E Party fights for its’ survival, in consort with Republican leaders and others, Cobb outdoes his hostility from Volume I by unleashing a series of relentless, subversive attacks in the spirit of America’s many unprincipled, cutthroat politicians.
