“Red State, Blue State” reviewed in the New York Observer

Robert Sommer is very kind:

I realized while reading Red State, Blue State, Rich State, Poor State that I hadn’t seen a book with so many charts and graphs since I struggled though economics and statistics—and that if the textbooks back then had been as interesting as Andrew Gelman’s analysis of the American electorate, I might have done better in college. . . .

But how do the Democrats manage to win in the rich states without winning rich voters? This is the Freakonomics-style analysis that every candidate and campaign consultant should read. . . .

That was our aim. . .

  1. I cannot wait to get my hands on this book. I haven't waited for the release of anything, movie, record or book, with this much anticipation in years.
