Along with its analysis of soft money strategies and effects,Outside Money offers the first systematic examination of the full range of campaign communications by interest groups and illustrates the shift to the 'ground war' by parties and groups in 1998. Election year 2000 is certain to contribute its own chapter to this story of the power of outside money in campaigns, and the challenge to electoral democracy it poses.
