Data Analysis
The Bulldozer and the Big Tent, Todd Gitlin (John Wiley and Sons, 2007)
Chapter 12, "Is the Tent Big Enough?" is largely based on my research on ideological self-identification, using the American National Election Study. (Also cited in Gitlin's piece for The Chronicle of Higher Education, "The New Liberal Agenda".)
"The Big Race," John B. Judis, The New Republic (May 28, 2008)
I crunched some numbers on attitudes toward African Americans for this piece, again using the American National Election Study. (Also cited in Judis's piece for the Los Angeles Times, "Race Didn't Decide the Election".)
"The Politics of Polarization," William Galston and Elaine Kamarck, Third Way report (2005)
I was one of two research assistants on this project assessing trends affecting prospects for Democrats in upcoming elections. I looked at the exit poll data from the 1976-2004 presidential elections.
