@mattizcoop Nor do we want a Metro section in our drive for global reach. But everyone in the known universe cares passionately about the Premier League. — PolitiTweet.org

I wonder if the Times will bother to write about the end of the Mets season in their print edition tomorrow. But I assume that vital space is dedicated to a feature about badminton in Sri Lanka. — PolitiTweet.org

@juliadahl Does this qualify as a different career? I wanted to be a lawyer until I joined the Michigan Daily at age 20. It was all downhill from there. — PolitiTweet.org

@AndrewFeinberg @imillhiser Under those circumstances, I don't rule out McCain challenging Bush in 2004. Remember that McCain voted against the 2001 Bush tax cuts as a reflection of his enmity. — PolitiTweet.org

Even with the 10-second delay, it is so much better to listen to local announcers on the MLB app than put up with the fatuous bored self-important ESPN announcers. — PolitiTweet.org

@Bencjacobs I had $50 on Cubs because I thought it was sure bet with Charlie Root (19-6) on the mound. Losing made it damn hard to afford drinkable Prohibition whiskey. I was always fascinated the Lefty Grove closed the game out for the A's, even though he didn't know he got the Save. — PolitiTweet.org

@loneruraldem Seriously disagree. All you have to do is to have a .500 season to make the playoffs. Fewer playoff teams would bring back old-fashioned pennant races — PolitiTweet.org

@DickPolman1 And the Boy Genius almost blew the 2004 election for Bush after the rally-around-the-flag effects of 9/11. Real geniuses do not win the election by 118,000 votes in Ohio. — PolitiTweet.org

@ArtL7 @CharityNav @RachelBitecofer Biggest secret in politics is how much consultants get paid for working on a particular race. Many of the payments are hidden within the aggregate numbers for the media buy sent to the FEC. That's why $10 million one candidate has may not equal another candidate's $10 million. — PolitiTweet.org

@ArtL7 @swingleft @NormOrnstein @TheDemocrats @RachelBitecofer @sarahkendzior @jonlovett I have said what I know about giving. Check any group to make sure their role is merely to funnel your donation to a candidate. — PolitiTweet.org

@ArtL7 @TheDemocrats @NormOrnstein @RachelBitecofer @sarahkendzior @jonlovett @swingleft Again: A dollar given to a group buys significantly less TV time that a dollar given to a candidate. Also, a dollar given to a House candidate probably will have more impact than a dollar given to, say, Fetterman. Ads have more effect in down-ballot races. — PolitiTweet.org

@ArtL7 @TheDemocrats @NormOrnstein @RachelBitecofer @sarahkendzior @jonlovett Give to a candidate. Candidates pay much less for TV time (under a 1971 law) than any group. This is a truth that political groups do not emphasize. — PolitiTweet.org

The most important and terrifying piece that you will read today. The longer Putin's war in Ukraine goes on, the greater the danger of a nuclear miscalculation. And I write this as someone who wants to fully support the Ukrainians. https://t.co/s1rK6mH81c — PolitiTweet.org
