Professor: Reagan 'unbeatable'
if election occurred next 1
nonth
If the presidential election was next month, Pres
ident Reean would be "unbeatable," said John Bib
bing, UNL assistant professor of political science.
"I dont think Reagan did thb on purpose," Bib
bing said, "but letting employment go to the dcgi'
End working on inflation works well in terras of
election results."
Ilibbing was unsure what eflcct recent events in
Lebanon and Grenada would haw on next year's .
elections.' - ; , : .-
"It's too early to say," he said. Traditionally, there
has been a lot of uproar when things like this occur
and then it dies down. Americans have t een pretty .
fickle as far as foreign policy is concerned."
Hibbing said he thinks the key factor in the 1CC0
election was the economy, rather than the Iranian
hostage crisis.
"A lot of people have said that the reason there
were so many undecided voters until election day
was because the voters were waiting to see if the
hostages would be released," he said. "I think they
just hadnt decided because the election wasnt
here. The economy was a much ticr issue than the
hostages."
Hibbing has been conducting research covering
every Congressional race since World War II. His
researcn compares the economic situation in the coun
try at the time to the results of Congressional races.
He said voters tend to blame incumbent members
of the party in power, rather than all members of the
; party.
"Only those whoVe been in office a long time are
held culpable," he said. "The message here is: in a bad
year, go after the hot shots. Go after the races that
seem unwinnable, because those are the ones who
are going to be blamed for a bad economy, and the
' voters will want somebody in to change their
situation."
The voters perception of the economy, rather
than the economy itself, often guides their decision,
Ilibbing said. ,
"Iftherecoverylookslikeitislosingsteamandthe
economy falb back, the Republicans could be in real
; trouble," he said.
