Obama and Romney both presented themselves as champions of the middle class and those who aspired to join it. While the president offered a vision of American prosperity that spread centrifugally from the middle, his Republican challenger believed that economic well-being was initiated at the top by job creators and flowed down, an approach that Obama claimed had been tried in the past and failed. After the election, Obama and Boehner entered into negotiations to try to avoid the so-called fiscal cliff, which involved either the expiration or enforcement of a series of economic measures set to transpire at the turn of the new year.

Larry Sabato, one of the leading experts in American politics, has brought together respected journalists and academics from across the political spectrum to examine every facet of the 2012 election, and what its development and outcome will mean for the nation moving forward. In frank, accessible prose, each author offers insight that goes beyond the headlines, and dives into the underlying forces and shifts that drove the election from its earliest developments to its dramatic conclusion.Contributing authors joining Larry Sabato with chapters in the book include: Professor Alan Abramowitz of Emory University; Professor Diana Owen of Georgetown University; Jamelle Bouie of American Prospect; Professor James Campbell of SUNY-Buffalo; Political writers and commentators Kyle Kondik and Geoff Skelley of the University of Virginia Center for Politics; Michael Toner, former chairman of the Federal Election Commission; Karen E. Trainer of Wiley Rein LLP; Nate Cohn of The New Republic; Rhodes Cook, formerly of Congressional Quarterly; Robert Costa of National Review; Sean Trende of RealClearPolitics; and Professor Susan MacManus of the University of South Florida.Following Sabato’s introductory analysis, the contributors provide a comprehensive review of everything in play during the 2012 elections, including the controversial roles that unprecedented amounts of money and media played in deciding who would occupy the Oval Office as well as pivotal seats in Congress. They also explore the nominating processes, conventions, and futures of both the Democratic and Republican parties, and what recent geographic and demographic electoral realignments might mean for America’s politics beyond 2012.

I have read a half dozen reviews of the recent presidential election. This one is organized by topic--media, ads, etc.--each written by an expert in that area. These articles are not as partisan as many of the others I have read. Making extensive use of exit polls from battleground states, the articles have charts and poll results to support the claims and analyses of the writers.It as very dense in information and analysis, and I put it down several times. But I finished it with a sense of being well informed. It may be my last book on the election, which would be a relief!

Excellent collection of analyses across the whole spectrum of the vote. Each writer was a topic area expert. The tables were helpful and memorable, although a bit difficult to digest on my Kindle.

Always nice to read when America makes a great choice! Larry Sabato is the best at this kind of analysis.

If you're looking for an honest and concise summary of the 2012 presidential election beyond the partisan political spin, this is a must. When presented with the clear implications that changing US population statistics projected, there remained little doubt that national Republicans weren't going to be able to squeeze another victory out of the "southern strategy" tube--but they tried, and lost convincingly. Larry Sabato and his team of specialists have examined every aspect of the political landscape and cited their impact on voting, including enough indisputable data, that both Republicans and Democrats looking toward 2014 mid term and 2016 contests, should clearly be able to see what they're faced with. While unemployment and the economy may play a pivotal role in the months and days leading up to an election, the long term face of America as a nation of collective minorities cannot be ignored by either party.

Well written and interesting. This was used in a political science class that I sat in on. I recommend it.

Synopsis: Sabato offers a number of essays from political writers on the 2012 election focusing on polls and research of data from the most recent election.

My rating: 4 Stars

My opinion: I must preface this review by stating I am a huge political junky. I can't get enough of politics and love breaking it down. In my first year of college, I had considered a Political Science major until I sat in my first class and went screaming out the door with the breadth of the information/spectrum of the global political parties! These days, I would probably devour it.

On that note, I am also a stalking fan of Larry Sabato. I subscribe to his Crystal Ball newsletter, forward it to people for discussion and have even emailed his center on several occasions to ask questions (and even received responses). I had considered purchasing this book on several occasions, but when I saw it on Netgalley, I jumped at it! In his television and print "appearances" I have found Mr. Sabato to offer the most concise information without being subjected to partisan ramblings on political issues.

Sabato and his contemporaries offer insight through breaking down the 2012 election and how it compared to, not only the 2008 election, but also to recent presidential elections. I loved the depth of data given and the ease in interpreting it. Graphs and such were incredibly detailed and polls were plentiful.

On that note, I did find there to be some redundancy and crossover in the information that was given in the various essays, which made it very boring in spots to read. Furthermore, in a number of essays, I found that some partisan comments slipped in. I seek out work from this author to avoid it and found myself rolling my eyes when these comments would pop up.

A special note: I didn't put this book on my Nook to read and reviewed it on my computer. I felt that it would not transfer well to an ereader due to screen size and the abundance of graphs. I would recommend purchasing the print copy or only reading a ebook copy on a larger screen ereader or IPad.

Would I recommend? : For political junkies...otherwise eyeballs might start rolling and eyelids might start fluttering. This book has a huge chunk of data!

One of the things I liked about "Barack Obama and the New America" was that it featured some very talented, relatively new faces in the political commentary game: Nate Cohn of The New Republic has a great chapter on demographics and how the GOP turnout edge in midterms might even be slipping away (let alone the party's presidential election difficulties); Jamelle Bouie of the American Prospect and Robert Costa of National Review offer interesting thoughts on the future of, respectively, the Democrats and the Republicans; and Sean Trende of RealClearPolitics offers a sharp look at why 2012 probably isn't predictive of elections going forward.
Thought politics was over for a while? Think again. This book explains how 2012 may have been just the first year of a new era in American politics. It offers a thorough review of the political events of 2012. More importantly, it offers comprehensive analysis (balanced politically with contributions from the Left, Right, Middle and politically unaffiliated) not just of the 2012 race for President, but also of the Congressional and gubernatorial contests as well. What's really great is that the news in the book is actually NEW! Provocative insights on how the elections of last November may have set the stage for so many other future political contests - including the 2016 race for the White House...and maybe even beyond!
