In October 1972, a pamphlet popped up in my college bookstore in Ann Arbor. Its title: “How the Polls Were Wrong and George McGovern Was Elected President.” That’s almost where the Trump folks are today. — PolitiTweet.org

I demand that Biden release his list of all sub-Cabinet appointees down to the deputy assistant secretaries at HUD and Commerce. And I will assume that Biden is hiding something bigly if I don't see the full list by 8:00 tonight. — PolitiTweet.org

@glastris The problem with this approach (though I favor it) is that liberal cause groups depend on raising money from screaming about Roe v Wade and related issues. If they focus exclusively on the due process argument, their supporters will believe they aren't fighting the good fight. — PolitiTweet.org

Now that a Supreme Court nominee will be likely rushed through on the eve of the election, I have sadly downsized my hopes. Right now, all I'm rooting for is that People of Praise not be mentioned by Democrats during the Barrett hearings. It's both wrong and politically foolish. — PolitiTweet.org

Kudos to @WSJ for setting a journalistic record. The newspaper actually wrote a story about older voters in Florida without going to the Villages. Even with the First Amendment, I didn't know that was legal. https://t.co/QwWxkCb4Si — PolitiTweet.org

@pattmlatimes @CNNPolitics @CBSNews @ABC @NBCNews @MSNBC @FOXTV I haven't researched this yet, but history (especially after the snafus of Florida in 2000) suggests that they will be very cautious. The danger is not networks calling states, but off-the-wall claims by GOP folks on endless TV panels. — PolitiTweet.org

Unless the networks go along with calling states prematurely, Trump claims that he won (with many states on the TV board white because they haven't been called) will have the credibility of chanting, "Twelve more years." So what if he declares victory in that circumstance? — PolitiTweet.org

From my @BrennanCenter column on fact checking: "Biden said last month, 'I’m gonna be a fact-checker on the floor while I’m debating him.' If that indeed represents Biden’s debate strategy, it would be a task worthy of Sisyphus." https://t.co/W94sQMbayA — PolitiTweet.org

As a New Yorker, this is the scariest story of the week. The heedless behavior of the ultra-Orthodox is neither good for the Jews or anyone else. Just a reminder that fanaticism and hatred of science can be a function of any religion: https://t.co/dQ7HnTIokk — PolitiTweet.org
