"A rousing call to action---equal parts inspiration and intellectual provocation."---Jeff Shesol, former presidential speechwriter and author of Supreme Power: Franklin Roosevelt vs. the Supreme Court"Combining passion and eloquence with deep research and sharp analytic skill, Dylan Loewe has produced a spellbinding book that should stimulate debate and provide hope to progressives everywhere."---Doris Kearns Goodwin, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of No Ordinary Time and Team of Rivals"Will empower Democrats and scare the pants off Republicans---not because it's yet another mindless partisan screed, but because it isn't."---Nico Pitney, national editor, Huffington PostIn 2008, the Democrats accomplished the political trifecta that had eluded them for more than forty years: get a progressive president elected and win landslide victories in the House and Senate at the same time.

From the midterms and redistricting to Obama's reelection, from the search for his successor in 2016 to the changing political landscape in 2020 and beyond, Loewe walks readers through what it will take for Democrats to stay in power and why the possibility of turning the nation "permanently blue" is suddenly so bright.
