...book The Bigger Picture: 30 Years of Portraits. In 1992 she was granted what would be eight years of behind-the-scenes access to the Clintons. That's how she famously captured Hillary Clinton's examination of Chelsea's outfit on Inauguration Day in 1997 and Bill's deep breath before accepting the nomination for President the second time. Walker resumed that close connection for the six day s leading up to Super Tuesday, when she was given unusual access to Hillary Clinton on the campaign trail--snapping her during moments of silence before rallies and private conversations backstage.

Kunzru's My Revolutions stages the same dilemma more deftly in the story of ex-radical Chris Carver, who's living in deep cover in placid suburban England 30 years after his crew went on a bombing spree. Kunzru's theme is summed up in the circularity of the title: when Chris' cover gets blown, he has to confront the way idealism becomes what it opposes ("War can only be abolished through war") and the way lies--like Carver's capitalist-pig identity--can turn into the truth...

Bob Worcester, the founder of research company MORI, an active member of Democrats Abroad since he moved to England in 1969, laughed ruefully. "If we were organized, we'd be Republicans," he said...
...Clinton-Obama race has tightened dramatically in the past month, Cardetti added. Clinton started with a big lead built on a foundation decades deep. She and her husband occupied the governor's mansion in next-door Arkansas for most of the 1980s, and then Bill Clinton carried Missouri in both of his presidential victories. Last year, Hillary Clinton picked up the endorsement of Kansas City's powerful Rep. Emanuel Cleaver...
