..although I didn't see it after the '04 race, usually Newsweek or Time, based on an agreed upon "won't report it until the election is over" agreement, is given unfiltered, behind-the-scenes access to both campaigns. They produce an outsized magazine edition chronicling the behind the scene maneuvering that went on.

For political junkies it's a great read. It gives you sort of a "so, that was the strategy behind why they did that" type of read. Look for it in December/January.

Years ago, Jules Witcover, used to do a 400-600 page book on the behind the scenes type stuff following the presidential elections. Haven't seen that reproduced (in a book) in several years, however.
