In assessing the subsequent debate about the budget and "big government," Darman laments the decline of the political center. He holds both President Clinton and House Speaker Gingrich accountable for the politics of polarization and stalemate that have made it seem as if no one is in control in Washington. *** Quantity Available: 1.
