Posted by DEAN SKIP RUTHERFORD – The Clinton School recently hosted Mark Halperin of Time Magazine and ABC News 
and John F. Harris, editor in chief of the Politico and former Washington Post reporter. The two talked about their recent book, The Way to Win, which analyzes winning campaign tactics from the George H.W. Bush, Bill Cllinton and George W. Bush campaigns.
Clinton School staffer Eric Wilson conducted an interview with both Halperin and Harris. His interview became our school’s first posting on You Tube. Here’s the link:
After their presentation, Halperin and Harris had dinner and conversation with several Arkansans at The Copper Grill, a popular restaurant which recently opened in the 300 Third Tower Building in downtown Little Rock, within walking distance of the Clinton School. At the Copper Grill, discussion ranged over whether longtime Bill Clinton assistant Bruce Lindsey would ever write a book (consensus: no); who would likely be the first Arkansan appointed to an important Hillary Clinton administrative position (speculation: Mack McLarty, Ambassador to China); who would be on the Republican ticket (speculation: Mitt Romney-Jeb Bush); and who is going to win the Iowa Democratic primary (mixed: some said Hillary Clinton; others said John Edwards).
Halperin is working on a new book. We’ve already invited him back for a presentation and book signing at the School.
