"Even strong Democrats didn't refer to him as 'Tricky Dick' or make jokes about the used-car salesman." In 1964, women voted more heavily than men for Lyndon...
Thus began an arduous series of taped interviews with the entire cast of what Arnheiter liked to refer to as "the Vance Mutiny," after Herman Wouk's famous fictional "mutiny" on board the Caine. As evidence accumulated before Sheehan, it became increasingly apparent that Arnheiter was, in fact, a bit wacky, and the book took on the surreal character of a modern-day parody of Wouk's classic.
