Synopsis

In the summer of 2011, McCain and Black embarked on a balls-out, cross-country tour. Along the way, they spoke to politicians, gun lovers, abortion-rights advocates and opponents, gay parents, flag burners, Muslims, poker players, Tea Partiers, Minutemen, veterans, teen moms, bikers, fast food workers, and a hooker or two. They toured the White House. They fired semiautomatic weapons. They stopped and ate at every Olive Garden along the way. But mostly they talked to each other about their differences, their similarities. It’s Chelsea Handler meets Hunter S. Thompson in a political cannonball run across America.

3.5 When I saw this book at the library, it just looked really interesting to me mostly because it's such a strange concept. Take Meghan McCain, daughter of former GOP Presidential candidate John McCain and Michael Ian Black, comedian with fairly liberal views, and throw them in a stinky RV for a tr......more

Goodreads review by Eileen on June 03, 2012

This book was disappointing. The authors spend too much time seeing the sights and partying and not enough time actually meeting people along the way. They are very candid and their political discussions are civil, so that part was great. It says on the back cover - they "talk to strippers, senators......more

Goodreads review by Erik on April 18, 2013

Entertaining and mildly engaging (soft for you hard-core politicos out there), a good light hearted read that in the end tells us something that we already knew. Politicians and the politically obsessed are assholes, the rest of us are just fine, and Megan McCain likes to get smashed ALOT. :)......more
