"So Damn Much Money tells you how Washington, D.C., really works. After more than forty years in Washington, Kaiser knows that if leaders lead from convictions and the people wake up to their power as citizens, we can still do great things in America."
—Senator Bill Bradley
"So Damn Much Money is an accurate and frank description of how lobbyists and money have come to run Washington. It is very much in the spirit of the great muck¬raking books at the turn of the twentieth century."
—Representative Leon E. Panetta
"Bob Kaiser takes the reader past the clichés and caricatures of Washington, and tells a very human story. He leaves the reader with an understanding of how it is possible that American government has reached a point where it now struggles to meet our most basic challenges. Kaiser calls upon a deep understanding of Washington and a writer's gift for telling a fascinating but true story. This is an important and compelling book."
—Senator Chuck Hagel
