How Political Consultants Are Changing Elections in the United States

& 8220;

This book focuses on the role professional political consultants

have in U.S. elections today by investigating the relationships they have

with other electoral actors and examining consultants’ attitudes and

beliefs about candidates, voters, and political parties as well as their

own place in the electoral system. Although this discussion does not

include a “how to” of political campaigning—I will leave that for the

experts, the consultants themselves—it does include an examination of

consultants’ place in modern elections and what they contribute to campaigns.

Part of this task is to explore and evaluate many of the criticisms

that have been levied against consultants. Are consultants detrimental

to democratic elections? Are they the root of increasingly expensive

campaigns? Do they manipulate the American voter with slick tricks and

gimmicks? The answers to these questions may surprise some readers.

This book would not have been possible without the help of

many individuals. First and foremost are Jim Thurber and Candy

Nelson. The experiences and opportunities they afforded me while I

was a graduate student at the left for Congressional and Presidential

Studies (CCPS) at American University were more than I could

have ever asked for. My involvement with the Campaign Management

Institute under Candy Nelson gave me my first glimpse into the

world of practical politics and professional consultants. It was my

great fortune to have a mentor in Jim Thurber who was more generous

with time, resources, and opportunities than any graduate student

could ever expect. I never could have completed this project without

his assistance, guidance, and, most of all, his generosity. He and Candy

brought me on board their “Improving Campaign Conduct” project,

funded by The Pew Charitable Trusts, and provided me not only with

a place to work and learn but with an opportunity to become involved

in a tremendous research experience, which evolved into this book,

and expected nothing in return.
