I just read this piece. It is one of the most eloquent and haunting post-election stories out there. I hope you will read it and I will add that I'm a huge fan of @ClareMalone. — PolitiTweet.org

@jbgerard Read I. F. Stone in high school as well. But "My Weekly Reader" was influential in elementary school where I grew up in Connecticut. — PolitiTweet.org

@mattizcoop @bungarsargon @nytopinion Whenever I visit my Wiccan relatives in Portland, I can’t even follow the prayers any more. But I know their religion gives order to their humdrum depressing lives. — PolitiTweet.org

@mattizcoop @bungarsargon @nytopinion Love it. You win the evening. — PolitiTweet.org

@mattizcoop @bungarsargon @nytopinion I had heard about this piece on Twitter, but it actually reads worse than I had imagined. What’s next? A touching story about sadly saying farewell to the Druid celebrations of one’s youth? — PolitiTweet.org

@WhitStillman Sounds like the title of a Wilkie Collins novel. — PolitiTweet.org

Inspired by Kelly Loeffler, I am seriously considering signing all my correspondence, "Radical Liberal Walter Shapiro." — PolitiTweet.org

Given the makeup of the Senate, regardless of what happens in Georgia, I am baffled why Warnock doesn't just flatly say that he opposes increasing the size of the Supreme Court. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
Fascinating that Loeffler would not say a word in defense of a Republican governor. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
Loeffler just described "Radical Liberal Raphael Warnock" as socialist. Why then doesn't she save a word and just call him "Socialist Raphael Warnock"? Also, how can you simultaneously be a socialist and a liberal? — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
I wonder what would happen if Loeffler changed the order once and called her opponent "Liberal Radical Raphael Warnock." — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
She reminds me of Marco Rubio during the 2016 GOP debates. Rubio, even when attacked by Chris Christie, kept repeating the same debate talking points. — PolitiTweet.org

Can it possibly be effective for Loeffler to be so robotic and programmed in this debate? She has transformed herse… https://t.co/kUncW4DXWx

@alexheard You win. Your version is funnier. — PolitiTweet.org

"Radical liberal Raphael Warnock" is being repeated by Kelly Loeffler so often that I assume that she practices in front of the mirror for an hour every morning. — PolitiTweet.org

@JohnRobertAnde3 @RonBrownstein I wasn't saying that it was the only factor. But in writing about babyboomers and the media of the 1950s and 1960s, "My Weekly Reader" is usually forgotten. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
It is hard to exaggerate how important “My Weekly Reader,” which was distributed in the schools, was in shaping the worldview of early babyboomers. — PolitiTweet.org

@timjhogan Well done. That made me laugh and I'm normally a tough crowd. — PolitiTweet.org

@Margoandhow It isn't mine. Versions of the line have been credited to Louis XIV, Thomas Jefferson and Sam Rayburn. Here is Bill Safire on Page 290 on that odd concept called "Gratitude" in politics: https://t.co/1ua8OFHRfp — PolitiTweet.org

Of course, every appointment creates 19 enemies and one ingrate. Fascinated what Democrats will say about Newsom once they know they have been passed over. — PolitiTweet.org

Newsom’s leadership during COVID has been horrendous, but this may be why you won’t hear more criticism about him 👇🏻 https://t.co/bbhfNdk741

@rickperlstein @CharlesPPierce @BillKristol I think our disagreements on this are important. And I suspect that I have more respect for the courage of consistent never-Trumpers than you do. But I am stumped about how to resolve this question in 280 characters. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@rickperlstein @CharlesPPierce @BillKristol How I just long for normal political arguments over taxes and spending. When that becomes the norm, I will be willing, even eager, to point out philosophical differences. But that's still in the future and I hope it only turns out to be in the "short-term future." — PolitiTweet.org

@HelenKennedy You have to remove "The Producers" from your memory to be able to envision it. But Nathan Lane was superb. — PolitiTweet.org

@HelenKennedy Spoiler alert: He gets Ethel to sing. Seriously, I saw both the original Broadway production and the revival with Nathan Lane. The revival (especially in the second part) was better. — PolitiTweet.org

@rickperlstein @BillKristol The long game for me is to get through the 2024 election with our Constitution and our democratic norms intact. — PolitiTweet.org

@LPDonovan @MichaelMcGough3 Totally agree. The original "real" appearance before the Michigan legislature was much funnier than the SNL version. — PolitiTweet.org
