synopsis

SO GOES THE NATION is a fascinating and even-handed documentary about the battle for the state of Ohio in the 2004 presidential election. With the U.S. mired in a controversial war, President Bush’s reelection was far from a sure thing. Yet Senator Kerry’s opponents were able to brand him a “flip-flopper” and, more questionably, a war deserter. As campaign workers from both sides work to secure victory for their candidate, key figures from both sides retrace the highs and lows of the political contest.
