I am looking for grad schools to get a masters degree. I have BAs in Political Science and Mass Communication. And a minor in history. I want to work in politics, campaigns and that sort of thing. So I would prefer a program that does practical politics and teaches real skills instead of a theory based study. Anyone know good programs I should look at?

And I have done internships with my Congresswoman and a campaign finance firm in DC. And not to reiterate, but I am having trouble finding a school that teaches practical politics. Not programs like Georgetown that teach mainly theory.

I've always heard good things about Georgetown.
Have you done an internship anywhere? That is a great way to get started in politics. And right now many areas are nearing primary time (August), and many campaigns are in full swing and needing volunteers--contact a local candidate and see what they have available. It's a great way to get your foot in the door, with the chance of future opportunities and for networking.
