Right Turn: The Decline of the Democrats and the Future of American Politics.

Retrospective Voting in American National Elections.

The Rise of Warren Gamaliel Harding, 18651920. By Randolph C. Downes. (Columbus: Ohio State University Press, 1970. Pp. 734. $17.50.) Contemporary historians are actively reexamining the politics of Warren Harding. Randolph Downes's contribution is a lengthy coverage of the pre-presidential years which will complement Robert K. Murray's, The Harding Era (Minneapolis: University of Minnesota Press: 1969), a treatment of the presidential years. Together, they provide adequate data for reflection upon his politics, and should stimulate further examination. Downes's work is a narrative, painstakingly constructed from documentation. While decidedly a political study, it is not self-consciously an analysis of statesmanship, political thought, or particular hypotheses. Instead, it follows the current of "politicking" which the author believes was the essence of Harding's politics, and which was of a higher quality than his "statesmanship." The two most salient features of his "politicking," and the sources of his power, are "Americanistic" and "mirage-creating" rhetoric, and unity-oriented conduct within the Republican party.

This paper analyzes patterns of industrial structure and party competition in the 2012 presidential election. The analysis rests on a new and more comprehensive database that catches more of the myriad ways in which businesses and major investors make political contributions than previous studies do. By drawing on this unified database, the paper is able to show that both major parties depend on very large donors to a greater extent than past studies have estimated. The paper outlines the firm and sectoral bases of support for the major party nominees, as well as for Republican candidates who competed for their party's presidential nomination. The paper shows that President Barack Obama's support by big business was broader than hitherto recognized. A central conclusion is that the sectors most involved in the recent controversies over surveillance were among the president's strongest supporters. The paper also analyzes patterns of business support for the Tea Party in Congress, showing that certain parts...

Party Competition and Industrial Structure in the 2012 Elections: Who's Really Driving the Taxi to the Dark Side?

In the turbulent Spring of 1919, Bronson Cutting, a wealthy “Progressive” who controlled one of New Mexico’s leading newspapers, decided to throw in with the enthusiasts who were pushing General Leonard Wood for the 1920 Republican presidential nomination. For a few months Cutting and likeminded local acquaintances worked by themselves, in virtual isolation, for the General, who was widely perceived as the heir to the mantle of the recently deceased Theodore Roosevelt.
