@GovHowardDean In fact, the odds are that the last two Democratic presidential nominees will have cast yay votes for the Iraq War. That would have seemed unimaginable in ’08-'09 — PolitiTweet.org

Sam Stein @samstein

@GovHowardDean yes. My larger point was that the vote has become (or, maybe, was) so seminal and such a boost to Democrats (Obama’s mere speech against it propelled him in 2008) that you’d imagine more candidates would have been launched by it. Instead, they’re mostly gone from public life — PolitiTweet.org

McConnell, who contrived of a so-called rule to rationalize holding up a SCOTUS nominee and has since reimagined said rule in order to lay the groundwork for confirming a future nominee, pens a column abt the value of Senatorial norms https://t.co/JZJk4eE8mY — PolitiTweet.org
