Document Summary
Difference between political science and physics is qualitative not quantitative. Can"t do controlled experiments, can do controlled investigation. Explain as much as you can, even if it"s not everything. Just because you can"t explain everything doesn"t mean you shouldn"t try to explain anything: addressing problem #3 experimental intervention- they deal with this also, measuring the boiling point of water. 3 days prior to the vote, poll was taken. Obama and vice versa: doesn"t explain why, so close to the vote that you are essentially just describing the vote.
