Klobuchar’s ode to the experience on the debate stage may have been planned, but it was devastatingly effective. — PolitiTweet.org

Curious if anyone will mention Biden’s tolerant attitude towards a Super PAC working on his behalf. — PolitiTweet.org

If I were Biden, Sanders or Klobuchar, I would happily let them go at it. — PolitiTweet.org

That may have been Warren’s best answer in the last two debates. — PolitiTweet.org

Could Bernie ever talk for more than 45 seconds without using the epithet “billionaire”? — PolitiTweet.org

Serious question: If you were a stranger to US politics, would you have known tonight that it was Biden who is the former two-term debate? — PolitiTweet.org

I like PBS. But a five-person panel to do commentary during a brief break? — PolitiTweet.org

I hope the debate is more moving than the backdrop. — PolitiTweet.org

@mirandayaver Thanks. I thought it was me. — PolitiTweet.org

@dianefeldman Even though I have raised the white flag, I just found this NH Op-Ed by Kathy Sullivan: https://t.co/3nQAqsK3Dd — PolitiTweet.org

@dianefeldman I'll go quietly, Officer. No more resistance from me. — PolitiTweet.org

@Michaelander45 @newrepublic Why are neutral rules good versus judgment of what is best for the party? Also, the preferences of actual voters three or even six months before they vote in primaries are not very meaningful. Only in the four early states are most voters familiar with all the candidates. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@dianefeldman All I can say in my defense is that the DNC has been winnowing out the field based on polls since September, which was five months before Iowa. — PolitiTweet.org

I always loved that Senator Bentsen ran 800,000 votes ahead of VP Bentsen in 1988. — PolitiTweet.org

@jwgop @joelockhart @Lis_Smith @chrismeagher Funny. Well we won the senate race in Texas.

@Specialk6657 I can see using benchmarks (polls, endorsements) to decide which non-traditional candidates might warrant a slot on a debate stage. But I don't see it for senators or governors. — PolitiTweet.org

My favorite Impeachment Day metaphor courtesy of the terrific @Bencjacobs: "For Republicans, Trump was an orange hued Captain Dreyfus." https://t.co/uHvIYIuzc9 — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@planoneck Four reasons: 1). Because Bennet is considered a serious senator and Steyer is ego-tripping; 2). Because historically Iowa and NH polls have dramatically fluctuated; 3). Because there's no such thing as a national primary; 4). Because debate exclusion has killed his fund-raising. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@Specialk6657 Yes, I have a strong bias towards people who have been elected statewide or served in the Cabinet. It's not a slippery slope -- and I don't see the purpose served by giving debate slots to Andrew Yang or Tom Steyer or considering Marianne Williamson a real candidate. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@SteveKettmann @newrepublic I was short on words because it's Twitter. I meant that impeachment is "gone" until it gets to the Senate, not that it's suddenly irrelevant. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
Add another element. Because Trump's act is getting stale (we have all heard the grievances), he feels the need to keep going further and further in an effort to stay the center of attention. That's why there is a chance the 2020 race will be more about toilets than the economy. https://t.co/PkGbp1UGKc — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
With impeachment gone and nine hours to tonight's debate, you're obviously desperate for something thrilling to read. How about my latest @newrepublic piece on how Tom Perez exiled real candidates (Cory Booker, Michael Bennet) from the debate stage? https://t.co/iBS0XLEiiT — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart once said about pornography, "I know it when I see it." But Tom Perez refuses to distinguish serious presidential candidates (Michael Bennet, Cory Booker) from pretenders (Tom Steyer). Hence these crazed debate rules: https://t.co/iBS0XLEiiT — PolitiTweet.org

I wonder what angry cliches ended up on the cutting room floor in Republican congressional offices. — PolitiTweet.org

Other than maybe Abraham Lincoln, it is hard to think of any American politician who can be eloquent within a 60-second time limit. — PolitiTweet.org

@SenatorZero @greenfield64 Fascinated to see how mangling the English language has any positive impact for the GOP. — PolitiTweet.org

@GenCounselWolf @greenfield64 I haven't checked closely, but I think this dropping of the "ic" dates back to the McCarthy era in the 1950s. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@greenfield64 For 30 years I have been waiting for a single voter to change his or her mind because the Republicans deliberately drop the final "ic" in Democratic. — PolitiTweet.org
