* I'm also not sure the takeaway (that staffers/consultants don't matter much) is *correct*. Like a lot of things, it's probably half-true. But every other Lesson From 2016 is beaten like a dead horse and treated like a new iron law of politics, and that one is sort of ignored. — PolitiTweet.org

"All these high-paid staffers and consultants don't matter very much" is one of the more obvious potential takeaways* from 2016, but not one you'll hear much in the mainstream media because the folks in the staffer/consultant class are often journalists' sources/friends, etc. — PolitiTweet.org

Interesting that we’ve so readily clicked back into talking about presidential races as if “top talent” or even fun… https://t.co/n5Rb7HduZ1

@MattGrossmann I'm not sure I really buy Harris as a flavor-of-the-month, she seems like a super traditional candidate who got a typical amount of coverage upon launch. Beto's closer but he was much better known than Buttigieg going into the cycle. — PolitiTweet.org
