The Professor Pundits (1/11)

In this edition: Bert was in both Iowa and New
Hampshire and compares the style and
substance of each of the leading candidates
he saw. Bert recently offered in-depth observations
of Iowa as a guest blogger in Matt’s “Presidential
Power” blog. Matt looks ahead to South Carolina
and the challenges the candidates face in that state.
And both pundits discuss the major role Super
PACs have played so far in the primary. [Watch]

The Republican primary race has shifted momentum
so many times, it’s hard to catch your breath. Since
we last checked in with our pundits, profs Matt
Dickinson and Bert Johnson, the primary campaign
has been quite eventful, including Herman Cain’s
exit and Newt Gingrich shooting to the top of the
polls. Does the idea of momentum actually make
a difference? Our pundits took up this question, but
they don’t agree on the answer. [Watch]

The Professor Pundits (11/18)

It’s been a rough few weeks for some Republican
primary candidates, but a fascinating time for
political observers. We checked in with
Middlebury’s professor pundits, Matt Dickinson
and Bert Johnson, for a rundown of the newest
developments in the Republican primary, how
“Occupy Wall Street” could impact the presidential
race, and some of the more notable moments
from the latest round of primary debates. [Watch]

For political junkies, it doesn’t get much better
than the horse race under way in the GOP
primary. And what about President Obama’s
prospects? Will he be able to energize his base
amidst the many challenges he’s facing? To
help us get a handle on what’s behind all this
wrangling, we asked Middlebury political scientists
Matt Dickinson and Bert Johnson to share their
thoughts on the campaign so far. [Watch]
