The story behind the unseating of a Senate majority leader the race between Tom Daschle and John Thune in South Dakota was widely acknowledged as the other big race of 2004. Second in prominence only to the presidential race, the DaschleThune contest pitted the rival political ideologies that have animated American politics since the 1960s. In a sign of the ongoing strength of political conservatism, Daschle became the first Senate leader in fifty years to lose a reelection bid.Historian Jon K. Lauck, a South Dakotan who was an insider during that heated campaign, now offers a multilayered examination of this hardfought and symbolically charged race. Blending historical narrative, political analysis, and personal reflection, he offers a closeup view of the issues that divide the nationa case study of the continuing clash between liberalism and conservatism that has played out for more than a generation in U.S. politics.Daschle vs. Thune moves beyond the nittygritty of public policy to deftly show how the recent past continues to shape the ongoing political battles that animate pundits and bloggers. It is a compelling story told by a writer who knows both his home ground and how it fits into the wider U.S. context.
