Ted Cruz on one of the reasons Democrats did better than expected: "They went hard left, they energized their base, they governed as left-wing lunatics, and their base showed up in big numbers." — PolitiTweet.org

@cityafreaks Honestly not a bad idea for her to do the hit. Two do-no-harm softballs, literally just one question ("Why do you think this is happening?") Compare that to, like, Kathy Hochul going on MSNBC and the interviewer saying she feels unsafe in NYC, which GOP used immediately. — PolitiTweet.org

Scott talked with reporters after the speech. On whether he'd run for president in 2024: "No, I'm running for the Senate." — PolitiTweet.org

Scott explaining why Herschel Walker's win would matter: "A 50-50 seat means we have the exact same number of senators on committees, which means no legislation, no nominees, can pass without getting our votes." — PolitiTweet.org

"How can you win an election if people don't know what you stand for, what you're gonna do?" asks Scott. "The current strategy of most Republicans in Washington is just to be against the crazy Democrats in Washington - and they're crazy - and never outline what we're for." — PolitiTweet.org

Another theme here is assuring the audience that they should be less glum about the midterms bc they'll run the House and control committees. Rep. David Kustoff: "We're going to be controlling the narrative and setting the agenda." — PolitiTweet.org
