Killian predicts Perry “will be toast” after South Carolina, but points out that overseas “these comments are taken seriously” and the State Department had to do damage control.

Linda Killian was a guest on C-SPAN's "Washington Journal" to discuss her upcoming book, "The Swing Vote: The Untapped Power of Independents." In writing the book, Linda Killian talked with hundreds of citizens, activists and public officials around the country and paints a vivid portrait of the swing voters. She focuses on four key swing demographic groups and states – Colorado, Ohio, New Hampshire and Virginia - that will be critical in the 2012 election. Killian presents a new model of the swing voters and reveals who they are and what they want from their government. She describes the intense disappointment and frustration these voters have with the political system and the two parties. She also examines the heightened polarization of Democratic and Republican elected officials and their inability to deal with our nation’s most important problems. This is not only a timely shot across the bows of both parties but an impassioned call to Independents to bring America back into balance.
