It would be ironic if Democratic candidates won the South Carolina Senate race but lost in North Carolina. Not saying that's likely, but considerably more plausible than a month ago. — PolitiTweet.org

The phrase "strategery" was coined 20 years ago today. Will Ferrell on SNL playing Republican presidential nominee George W. Bush, Oct. 7, 2000. https://t.co/OhEJzxJv12 — PolitiTweet.org

Strange that Trump waited until after the market closed to head to the hospital last Friday after his COVID-19 diagnosis, but pulled plug on pre-election economic aid package agreement with Congress an hour-plus before trading closed. — PolitiTweet.org

The IRS is investigating longtime NRA Chief Executive Wayne LaPierre for possible criminal tax fraud related to his personal taxes, according to people familiar with the matter. An attorney for Mr. LaPierre didn’t immediately comment. https://t.co/m8OxT0tomC via @WSJ — PolitiTweet.org

@dankoth_baird Yes, the family manor of William Henry Harrison is "next door". As in acres away. They both came from the Virginia gentry. But also a haunting experience, since Tyler's house was a slave plantation. Knowing that gives it a different, eerier, feel than other historic sites. — PolitiTweet.org

@BradyCarlson And I'll get your book! — PolitiTweet.org

@dankoth_baird I didn't believe it at first either. Some years back I spent an afternoon with Harrison Ruffin Tyler, who drove me around the former president's house. Fascinating on several levels. — PolitiTweet.org
David Mark @DavidMarkDC
@BradyCarlson Yes, one of those quirks of history. I met Harrison Ruffin Tyler in 2006. He gave me a tour of President Tyler's house and had lunch. Absolutely fascinating. And he looked like his grandfather, in the mid-19th century portraits. — PolitiTweet.org

But Stockdale’s performance is an unfair way to judge his life and career. The Navy vice admiral and aviator was awarded the Medal of Honor in Vietnam, where he was a prisoner of war for over seven years. Still, fair to say electoral politics was not his best skill set. 39/39 — PolitiTweet.org

21.James Stockdale (I) 1992. “Who am I? Why am I here?” asked Ross Perot’s running mate in his opening statement, in the most self-aware question or statement in either a presidential or vice presential debate. 38/39 — PolitiTweet.org

Dole did lasting damage to his political image, and it took him three tries and 20 years to finally win a Republican nomination for himself. 37/39 — PolitiTweet.org

20.Bob Dole (R) 1976. Twenty years earlier, the Kansas senator, a World War II hero wounded in combat in Italy, seemed to suggest there was a partisan difference over involvement in the war against Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan. 36/39 — PolitiTweet.org

It was downhill from there, with Kemp trying in vain to talk up the hapless campaign of Republican presidential nominee Bob Dole, the former Senate majority leader. 35/39 — PolitiTweet.org

To which Kemp, rather than responding with righteous indignation in defense of the party he’d represented for decades, said, meekly, “Well, I thank you, Al. I mean that very, very sincerely.” 34/39 — PolitiTweet.org

19. Jack Kemp (R) 1996. The supply-side economics guru’s main flaw in his debate was letting rival Gore set the agenda. “Jack Kemp has been a powerful and needed voice against the kind of coarseness and incivility” used by Republicans, Gore said in a backhanded compliment. 33/39 — PolitiTweet.org

But Americans don’t vote based on vice-presidential nominees and it mattered little in the end – the Bush-Quayle ticket went on to win 40 states and scored a smashing Electoral College romp over ticket headed by Massachusetts Gov. Michael Dukakis. 32/39 — PolitiTweet.org

The debate only sunk Quayle’s public image further. 31/39 — PolitiTweet.org
