THE PEOPLE'S CHOICE

Just days after a close election, the newly elected president is killed, and confusion reigns as the electoral college is given the task of deciding who will be the next American president. ABC news analyst Jeff Greenfield's reading is initially so brisk as to leave the listener breathless, but he (thankfully) soon settles into a comfortable pace. Although he doesn't attempt individual voices (except for an unsuccessful Southern accent or two), he skillfully expresses the tension, excitement and humor in the story, and his wry tone is perfect for this entertaining political satire.
