Alan Abramowitz is the ALBEN W. BARKLEY PROFESSOR EMERITUS of Political Science at Emory University. He's released some very interesting new research on political partisanship in the United States. It confirms what I already suspected: In recent years, despite what many Democrats probably believe, Democrats have moved further to their left than Republicans have moved to the right. (I suspect that the opposite was true a decade or two ago.) What does it mean for the country?
