Clift is also the author of Madam President: Shattering the Last Glass Ceiling, and co-author of War Without Bloodshed: The Art of Politics which she wrote with her husband, Tom Brazaitis. She recently launched the nationally syndicated Clift Notes, daily radio reports in which she offers her observations and analysis of social, cultural, and political issues.
