ISBN:
Category : Political Science

Pages : 248
Book Description
Pomper of the Eagleton Institute of Electoral Politics at Rutgers University, a distinguished group of political scientists make extensive use of survey data from CBS News/New York Times polls to explain just what happened to the once-bright prospects of George Bush, how persistent concerns about the state of the economy shaped the primary and general election contests, and how Ross Perot, even while losing, contributed to significant changes in American politics. Walter Dean Burnham of the University of Texas at Austin provides a historical perspective for understanding Bush's role as an "understudy" president whose lack of respect or talent for the charismatic dimensions of the office undermined his effectiveness and popularity. Ross K. Baker of Rutgers University tracks the primary process to illustrate the effects both of Clinton's remarkable fortitude in facing down the multiple and repeated attacks on his character and of Bush's mistaken tilt toward his party's right wing.

Clinton's Elections
Author: Michael Nelson
Publisher: University Press of Kansas
ISBN: 0700629173
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
In the presidential elections of 1980, 1984, and 1988, the three Democratic nominees won an average of about 10 percent of the Electoral College vote—a smaller share than any party in any three consecutive presidential elections in US history. In the next seven elections, Democrats won the popular vote in all but one (2004), a feat not achieved by a political party since the Democratic Party’s inception in the 1820s. What separated these record-setting runs was the election and presidency of Bill Clinton, whose pivotal role in ushering in a new era of American politics—for better and for worse—this book explores. Perhaps because Clinton’s presidency was hobbled by six years of divided government, ended in a sex scandal and impeachment, and was sandwiched between Republican administrations, it is easy to forget that he revived a presidential party that had become nearly moribund. In Clinton’s Elections Michael Nelson describes how, by tacking relentlessly to the center, Clinton revived the Democrats’ presidential fortunes—but also, paradoxically, effectively erased the center, in the process introducing the new political reality of extreme partisan divisiveness and dysfunctional government. Tracing Clinton’s place in American politics from his emergence as a potential nominee in 1988 to his role in political campaigns right up to 2016, Nelson draws a deft portrait of a savvy politician operating in the midst of divided government and making strategic moves to consolidate power and secure future victories. With its absorbing narrative and incisive analysis, his book makes sense of a watershed in the modern American political landscape—and lays bare the roots of our current era of political dysfunction.
