The Shutdown and the 2014 Elections in the Media

Yesterday I wrote about the impact of the government shutdown in 1995-96 and its impact on the that election. Sean Trende has his take today, pretty much agreeing with me. Chris Cillizza pushes back saying it'll be worse. Trende's article is full of detailed analysis. Cillizza's video contains some comparisons, without any data that provides any conclusions. I prefer Trende's work.
