@charlesmurray @newrepublic Not sure about that. Beneath the surface, both Biden and Harris are pols. What being a politician in 2020 requires may be different, but Biden and Harris see the world through a traditional lens. — PolitiTweet.org

From the shrewd analysis of @JillDLawrence: "The Nixon-to-China phenomenon is real. If only a die-hard anti-communist could open up relations with China, Biden and Harris are well suited to push through real police reforms. This is the moment." https://t.co/HDqDfasSnI — PolitiTweet.org

From my @newrepublic piece on Harris: "The truest bond between Biden and Harris may be the simplest—they are both politicians in the best sense of the word. They understand elections, Capitol Hill, and how to be tough without losing your sense of humor." https://t.co/eINnNYWLxb — PolitiTweet.org

Over the years, I wonder how many weddings and major anniversary celebrations have misled reporters trying to figure out the VP rollout. This may be real, but (shocker!) sometimes people book hotel ballrooms for other reasons than politics. — PolitiTweet.org

@mike_littwin @jimtankersley A tried-and-true tactic for covering your failure to actually read a friend's book is to lavishly and enthusiastically praise the jacket photo. Most authors are more sensitive about how they look in the jacket photo than whether they had a dangling modifier on Page 154. — PolitiTweet.org

@dcg1114 That's what I heard from Democratic insiders. They assume that the bounce from both conventions will be much smaller than usual. — PolitiTweet.org

Is this the end of the line for broadcast network coverage of presidential conventions? Network executives have been calling conventions a "dinosaur" since 1984 and grumbling about ratings. For the @BrennanCenter, I look at implications of this trend: https://t.co/onN6inECuD — PolitiTweet.org

The best conspiracy theory is that the Trump presidency was engineered by hardcore Nixon fans (paging Roger Stone) as a singleminded crusade to restore Nixon’s reputation in comparative terms. Alas, I don’t believe in conspiracy theories, even when they are beguiling. — PolitiTweet.org
