520    See how and why Washington is not functioning. Bob 
       Woodward's freshly reported, thirty-five-page Afterword to
       his national bestseller, The Price of Politics, provides a
       detailed, often verbatim account of what happened in the 
       dramatic "fiscal cliff" face-off at the end of 2012 
       between President Obama and the Republicans. Now it's 
       happening again. In fall 2013, Washington faces a new 
       round of budget and fiscal wars that could derail the 
       American and global economies. "We are primarily a 
       blocking majority," said Michael Sommers, Speaker John 
       Boehner's chief of staff, summarizing the House Republican
       position. It was the land of no-compromise: On health care
       cuts over ten years, Boehner suggested to Obama, you are 
       $400 billion, I'm at $600 billion. "Can we split the 
       difference here? Can we land at $500 billion?" "Four 
       hundred billion is it," Obama replied. "I just can't see 
       how we go any further on that." After making $120 billion 
       in other concessions, Obama pleaded with Boehner, "What is
       it about the politics?" "My guys just aren't there," 
       Boehner replied. "We are $150 billion off, man. I don't 
       get it. There's something I don't get." The Price of 
       Politics chronicles the inside story of how President 
       Obama and the U.S. Congress tried, and failed, to restore 
       the American economy and set it on a course to fiscal 
       stability. Woodward pierces the secretive world of 
       Washington policymaking once again, with a close-up story 
       crafted from meeting notes, documents, working papers, and
       interviews with key players, including President Obama and
       House Speaker John Boehner. Woodward lays bare the broken 
       relationship between President Obama and the Congress.
