Imagine going to law school, climbing the political ladder, attaining the title of attorney to the president of the United States..... and using your platform this way. Just amazing. — PolitiTweet.org

After @BretBaier corrects her, noting the delegate math and stating he will be the nominee, Judge Jeanine says something about the Democratic Party going crazy and clarifies that she hopes Biden "lives forever." OK then. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Alberta @TimAlberta

In the Fox News postgame of Biden/Kamala rollout, Judge Jeanine predicts "something is going to happen" to Biden before November and he won't be atop the ticket. So... there's that. — PolitiTweet.org

That part of Kamala Harris's story -- her Jamaican father courting her Indian mother during social-justice protests in Oakland -- is some biographical serendipity for the ages, the sort of "only in America" device Obama wielded with such potency and passion. — PolitiTweet.org

Some people on Twitter want you to think John McCain just picked Joe Lieberman and yet there is zero sign of organized opposition to Harris from the left. — PolitiTweet.org

(if you think Kamala Harris alienates progressives—like, really offends their core sensibilities a la Amy Klobuchar—you're spending way too much time on Twitter) — PolitiTweet.org

Joe Biden rightly called himself "The Bridge." He wasn't just picking a running mate; he was picking the future of the Dem Party. Tall task given the internal schisms of the post-Obama era. And yet, he found someone who alienates neither moderates nor progressives. That's a feat. — PolitiTweet.org

"I believe Joe is right when he says that this election is a fight for the soul of America. ... This is a moment in time when we have to look in a mirror and ask ourselves, Who are we? And I think we all know, we are better than this." The audition tape: https://t.co/k5zSUShxTe — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Alberta @TimAlberta

Remember, it was during this Detroit speech that Biden called himself "a bridge" to the next generation of Dems. It was significant—first time he'd described himself that way. Not coincidentally, Harris endorsed 24 hrs earlier and had just introduced him. https://t.co/k5zSUShxTe — PolitiTweet.org

The flip side: Harris's history as a prosecutor. For all her personal appeal to the black Democratic base, her professional baggage looms large. Here a recent conversation among prominent black Democratic women in Detroit: https://t.co/0wEmMTfFFF https://t.co/KhchutQdTZ — PolitiTweet.org

I've said/written this before: Kamala Harris was *dynamite* at Biden's rally in Detroit before the MI primary. Her ability to connect w/ that audience—in ways she never did in Iowa—left an impression on everyone in the room. Heckuva weapon to address black turnout woes of 2016. https://t.co/DFAAK0XhFo — PolitiTweet.org

The most obvious problem with trying to turn college football into a culture war is that it’s too late. Commissioners and ADs have already seen/heard enough to vote for cancellation. Had lawmakers turned up the volume a month ago, things would’ve gotten interesting. — PolitiTweet.org
