Characters and scenes are introduced with bold-lettered captions, and the incredible soundtrack has everything from Bob Dylan-sound-a-likes to Nas.

Veteran operatives, grizzled reporters and scores of young political field troops joining the fray for the first time all saw the same thing during three days of bold body language and zinging speeches: that the right, only recently declared to be on its last legs, is on the march.
