Palpatine's speech about the dangers of clones blindly following corrupt orders is an especially nice twist of the knife. He exploited that vulnerability to wipe out the Jedi, and now he's exploiting the fear of that vulnerability to replace the clones. Deliciously Machiavellian. — PolitiTweet.org

The way Palpatine snatches victory from the jaws of defeat by throwing Rampart under the bus is a brilliant twist. It underscores ex-Senator Burtoni's point that no one is essential to the Empire and reminds us that Palpatine is operating on a totally different level. — PolitiTweet.org

Side note: The way Palpatine enters the Senate chamber was really well done and totally sold the idea (which I think they're going for but isn't explicitly stated anywhere yet) that his appearance in the Senate is a rare event reserved for exceptionally grave situations. — PolitiTweet.org
