The powerful Congressman was unbeatable and the opposition melted away out of fear and intimidation. He would run another race unopposed - until a local small business owner stepped forward to be the electoral sacrifice.
The political experts considered this novice candidate an unqualified joke.
His own party would offer no help.
He couldn't win.
He would be crushed.
He was a Dead Man Running.
Like a political "Rocky," Dead Man Running is the true story of an unlikely candidate who wound up changing his congressional district. This behind-the-scenes look at a major campaign shows how one person actually can make a difference in the brutal world of modern politics.
Written in a first-person reporting style, this riveting drama will keep you turning pages to the very end.
