Mitch Stewart, the director of organizing for America for Barack Obama’s campaign (also, the guy who sent you an email every-other day) spoke at GPPI last week. His talk provided really interesting insight into both political strategy as well as a behind-the-scenes look at the 2008 election. Also interesting to me is how much he uses statistical modeling; maybe all of that quant and econometrics I’ve been taking actually will be useful!
