@petersagal @petermarksdrama Okay, the tap dancing was fine. But the story was so tedious I almost left at intermission, which is something I never do. But as I thought of other shows, I realized that maybe I was too harsh to include it. — PolitiTweet.org

@petersagal @petermarksdrama The first one that popped up in my mind was "The Tap Dance Kid" from 1983. Also "Sleight of Hand" that ran for 7 performances in 1987. Throw in Alan Cumming's one-man "Macbeth" from 2013 set in an insane asylum. — PolitiTweet.org

Kudos @petermarksdrama for a well-reported and, yes, depressing assessment of Broadway's long road back. My desperation for the theater is so intense that I am about to start lovingly reading the playbills from very bad shows I've seen. https://t.co/FH2sTn5CUq — PolitiTweet.org

A shocking self-discovery: I no longer care a whit about Brexit. At this point, Boris Johnson could join the Warsaw Pact and I still wouldn't read about it. — PolitiTweet.org

Please, please, don't over-react to one poll. This is a lesson that everyone should follow until November no matter what the polls say. — PolitiTweet.org

Single worst small story of the week. For what? To save $5,000 on Anapolis real estate? Trust me, the Tribune Company is going to have to pay a hell of a lot more to their crisis communications p-r firm. — PolitiTweet.org

@JeffGulati @ron_fournier I figured you were joking. But since I only play a statistician on TV (actually, in print), I had a tiny scare that maybe I was missing something. — PolitiTweet.org

@JeffGulati @ron_fournier You're joking? Or are you? — PolitiTweet.org

@barbaraslavin1 Other swing areas are MD and VA, both safe Democratic states. And a fringe of WV which is, of course, solid Trump territory. The point of the DC ads was solely so Trump could see them and be impressed with Brad Parscale. — PolitiTweet.org

During my all too brief stint as a baseball writer for Time nearly 30 years ago, I sat near Roger Angell in a press box. I marveled how he described plays into a tape recorder never taking his eyes off the ball. I, of course, was trying to take written notes. — PolitiTweet.org

@MM2LLC I assume the Times correctly teased the number out of the Trump campaign’s FEC reports. — PolitiTweet.org

@LOLGOP It's why prominent Democrats were privately such major fans of Brad Parscale as campaign manager. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@WinSpinCIC That's the point. But seeing the ads in the White House gratifies Trump's ego. In short this is no way to run a winning campaign. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
My favorite Trump detail: "Another Trump-pleasing expense: more than $1 million in ads aired in the Washington, D.C., media market." Feeding the boss' ego is how you keep your job in Trump Land. https://t.co/Hrwm4ZzA9P — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
Why the Trump campaign is nearly broke in one line: "Some campaign spending choices appear devised, at least in part, to satisfy Mr. Trump himself." And that isn't even counting the campaign picking up Trump legal bills. https://t.co/Hrwm4ZzA9P — PolitiTweet.org

@CharlotteAlter I so mean it. It's my biggest frustration about deciding not to take the risk of a traveling to swing states. I love long unstructured conversations with voters, especially in such an unusual election as this one. So I'm thrilled and envious you're doing it. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
Interviews like these are an important addition to campaign coverage. If you read polling questionnaires, you'll see there is often little room for nuance or surprising explanation of views. That's the point of having reporters, who listen, on the road having real conversations. — PolitiTweet.org

@davidjacksmith Funny thing, though. John Warner, the source of this story, is a former GOP senator who has enthusiastically endorsed Biden. — PolitiTweet.org

@RadioFreeTom @RachelBitecofer @jonfavs @SeanTrende John Warner, who was a top Nixon advance man in 1960, tells a compelling story about how Nixon the day after the election conceded because he worried the Soviets would benefit from uncertainty. Yes, later the GOP did not fully back down. — PolitiTweet.org

@RaySuarezNews @NormOrnstein @RadioFreeTom I'll go with the Kefauver tattoo. I really thought that Norm would have gone with the Alben Barkley option since Barkley was much more a man of the Senate. — PolitiTweet.org

Without drama (real or ersatz) what's the point of covering the horserace? I recall a week in 1984 when reporters and pundits (after a bad Reagan debate) tried to convince the world that Mondale had a real chance. — PolitiTweet.org
