Political scientists frequently moan about the reluctance of political journalists to read their work and use it when making horse-race prognostications. So it’s nice to see Tom Edsall (previously at the Washington Post, now at HuffPo) do a long piece on the implications of recent work on political cycles for the upcoming election. As a non-Americanist, I’m not very well grounded in this literature (my broad impression is that it’s a bit skimpy on the causal mechanisms), but even so.
