The 1992 presidential election was a triumph not only for Bill Clinton but also for the new breed of strategists who guided him to the White House and changed the face of politics in the process. For this thrilling, behind-closed-doors account of that campaign, the filmmakers closely followed the brainstorming and bull sessions of Clinton's crack team of consultants. Fleet-footed and entertaining, this is a vivid document of a political moment whose truths still ring in our earsIn The return of the War room James Carville, George Stephanopoulos, Mary Matalin, Frank Luntz, Mark McKinnon and others reflect on the 1992 presidential campaign, its lasting effects, and the "war room" campaign concept (1 hr., 22 min.)
