Theda Skocpol of Harvard University argues that the 2008 presidential election will be viewed as a choice point in American history, a milestone comparable in political significance to the 1932 and 1968 elections. Rarely do we see such sharp divisions in party message, organizational strategies, coalitional strategies, and with marked—and to some degree surprising—implications for the way inequalities of race, gender, and class are going to play out in the future.
