Whoa. This from Hillary on Bernie is going to cause quite a stir https://t.co/WdmkyTpjRU https://t.co/HPe0j2vJQj — PolitiTweet.org

It can't be that McConnell would hold up a "precedent" when it was convenient for him to cite one only to disregard it when it became less convenient. — PolitiTweet.org

One notable detail in this piece: Sanders cosponsored a public option bill a few years back along with Warren. But he's taken his name off that bill since the campaign has started (arguing that M4A is the end all) while Warren remains a cosponsor. — PolitiTweet.org

Sam Stein @samstein

The big problem now is Bernie never talks up this history and his supporters have bought into his no-compromises persona. It's a brew for a major letdown and it's rankled folks in the actual party. — PolitiTweet.org

Sam Stein @samstein

The most remarkable thing about this impeachment process is not the new information that has surfaced but the material that hasn't. Months in, has the WH produced a single bit of exculpatory primary documentation? Would McConnel object to it being introduced if they could? — PolitiTweet.org

Sam Stein @samstein

A source also notes that Bernie acquiesced to Schumer in 2017 when the latter wanted him to not do a Medicare for All tour as Republicans were trying to kill Ocare. Instead, Bernie barnstormed red states to argue against repeal. — PolitiTweet.org

Sam Stein @samstein

The NYTs ed board said Bernie is an uncompromising ideologue akin to Trump. But history shows otherwise. During Obamacare, the WH never feared that Sanders would vote no and Reid said he had more concerns about the centrists bucking him than Bernie https://t.co/Hhd5DqZRUv — PolitiTweet.org

Remarkable. And makes clear that Sanders claim of running a clean campaign was hollow — PolitiTweet.org

@charles_gaba @ryangrim I wouldn't use that terminology. But I do think Sanders is setting up his supporters for a potentially cosmic letdown too — PolitiTweet.org

Sam Stein @samstein

@TopherSpiro I think this is a fair point but also one that I am surprised Warrens camp hasn't made in response — PolitiTweet.org

Sam Stein @samstein

“I’m a pragmatist,” Sanders said. “If I was a writer or paid to go around giving speeches, that is something I could do. But I was elected by the people of VT to be their representative in Washington. And that requires me to shape and pass legislation" https://t.co/uzR5LIpiVm — PolitiTweet.org

My kid is playing cruel jokes on me. His longest sleep stretches are now 6-9pm and 530 to 830am. Everything in the middle is... meh. — PolitiTweet.org

Sam Stein @samstein

And if you think Bernie won't compromise on health care, I'd encourage you to look at the roll call for the vote on Obamacare--a bill he thought was basically incremental and which he still supported. — PolitiTweet.org

Sam Stein @samstein

Yeah. This is totally uninformed. All you have to do is listen to a Trump speech in which takes credit for VA choice, a bill that Sanders actually crafted with John McCain. — PolitiTweet.org

Biden and Obama spent a lot of months pursuing a deal with Republicans that would have cut Social Security and Medicare benefits. This is a matter of public record. They changed their tune in the latter years but the history is pretty clear on this. — PolitiTweet.org

@tomgara no. not really. Sure, he’s been in dc for decades. But Bernie’s candidacy would be a remarkable turning of the page (whether you agree with him or not). And Pete’s email implies otherwise. — PolitiTweet.org

Sam Stein @samstein

@JakeSherman yep. But I haven’t seen that weaponized against him much (if at all) before — PolitiTweet.org

Sam Stein @samstein

Bernie is certainly a creature of DC right now. But you’d be hard pressed to think of him as an insider or someone whose candidacy doesn’t represent a proverbial turning of the page. — PolitiTweet.org

Very interesting Mayor Pete fundraising email portraying Bernie as a Washington insider https://t.co/Uc8dfCYOev — PolitiTweet.org
