Go Home Am I The Cause Of Obama's Recent Problems?

MARCH 7, 2008

Am I The Cause Of Obama's Recent Problems?

Dan Drezner thinks so. If he's right, maybe I can shake down some promising candidate in 2012...

P.S. I was hoping the "Scheiber effect" brand-name would be affixed to something more academic-y, but you take what you can get...

P.P.S. Apologies for the light--er, nonexistent--posting these last two days. My piece for the next issue consumed pretty much all my time since the polls closed Tuesday. Mercifully, we put it to bed last night.

I had assumed no less than deadline fever setting in. But it was difficult, alright. What would we do without you, Noam?

By the way, has anyone else claimed originality for the Reverse Bradley effect? If not, you have certainly made a great contribution to folk political science.

Quick, write a long article about Hillary and McBush!  How about a series of articles about both in the next two weeks?? That'll fix them!

you were right about Ohio and Democrats not wanting Hillary to either win or lose, you bastard. I thought your reasoning was too clever by half, but looks like it hit the nail on the head.

blackton beat me too it Noam.  It seemed to happen that way in New Hampshire too.  I'd have thrown myself in that camp two months ago (didn't want anyone to win or lose), but I've seen enough of the candidates, and Clinton and her campaign's behavior since then, to have made a choice.
