But wouldn’t a divided field have led to a contested convention rather than a Bernie nomination since Democrats don’t have winner-take-all states? The party was never going to give nomination to Bernie with 35% of the delegates? — PolitiTweet.org

I think the thing we overestimated was that the field would remain divided enough to give Sanders the plurality. https://t.co/1JyICaNR21

One more notion: Maybe the media wildly over-rated Bernie's chances after he barely beat Buttigieg in NH and then dramatically swept Nevada with (wait for it) 41,075 caucus supporters. — PolitiTweet.org

That’s not wild or weird but right. So many searching for rationalizations for writing Biden off. https://t.co/a9GrDTXw6I

An absolutely wonderful first-person piece by a 90-year-old smoked fish slicer at Zabar's. I won't spoil it by trying to summarize it. But do yourself a favor and read it. https://t.co/ksJYMm1mye — PolitiTweet.org

On the 75th anniversary of FDR's death, I keep thinking about an inexpensive and probably common memorial bracelet that I saw inscribed with the words "My Friend Franklin Delano Roosevelt 1882-1945." It's the "my friend" that gets to me every time. — PolitiTweet.org

Do you think someone should do a remake of "The Sunshine Boys" and make it about Cuomo and de Blasio still feuding in 2040? — PolitiTweet.org

I know you've probably read the article. But I want to highlight a single passage: "These final days of February...illustrated Mr. Trump’s inability or unwillingness to absorb warnings coming at him. He...squandered vital time as the coronavirus spread." https://t.co/cieZRngNQF — PolitiTweet.org

The perfect Cole Porter song for this interlude in all of our lives: Bobby Short singing "Why Don't We Try Staying Home?" Lyric: "Wouldn't that be nice/We've done everything else twice/ Why don't we try staying home?" https://t.co/OlLR6QgfRb — PolitiTweet.org

I find that emotionally stunning. It feels like the 2020 NH primary took place in 1956. — PolitiTweet.org

Anyone who wonders what NYC is like right now, please watch this moving @nytimes video: https://t.co/6UfTeWPv0I All that is missing is the late Elaine Stritch singing Sondheim's "I'm Still Here." — PolitiTweet.org

@NormOrnstein Trump would probably say, "No patent? Is it too late for Jared and Ivanka to patent it?" — PolitiTweet.org

Every night at 7:00 as NYC cheers and cheers for those on the front lines of this horrible virus, I realize that I have come to feel an emotional connection to those strangers in the building on the other side of West 86th Street who are also cheering and waving every night. — PolitiTweet.org

.@petridishes latest -- and just in time. She suggests that the Trump slogan is "Never Remember." Just like Lincoln said after Gettysburg: "The world will note and long remember what we say here, but it must forget what they did here." https://t.co/jWXovyB94p — PolitiTweet.org

@stevemlieberman @SenhorRaposa Actually, Bradley's support though much of the run-up to 2000 was greater than Bernie Sanders' this year. That was because Bradley wasn't a polarizing figure like Sanders. Bradley's problem: His narrow loss in NH was magnified by a long gap for the Democrats until Super Tuesday. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@SenhorRaposa Bradley lost to Gore in NH by just 6,000 votes. That result was magnified many times over because for the Democrats that year there was a five-week gap until Super Tuesday. And with McCain's challenge to Bush dominating the headlines, Bradley couldn't get any coverage. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@JeffGulati @SenhorRaposa Bradley had a minor heart problem about a month before NH (I'm doing this from memory) and had an even more minor incident a few days before the NH primary. That prompted many independents (who had seen Bradley and McCain aligned on campaign reform) to vote in the GOP primary. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@SenhorRaposa A small historical point. Bill Bradley's campaign collapsed in the days before the 2000 NH primary, but he was a very serious challenger to Gore until then. For example, Bradley raised about as much money as the sitting VP. — PolitiTweet.org
