Baseball heresy (Ford Frick Division): I am hoping that Aaron Judge fails to hit his 61st HR tonight. That would mean that he would be tied with Babe Ruth after 154 games. I think the Babe's 1927 season should not be erased as part of the unofficial 154-game record. — PolitiTweet.org

My heresy in @rollcall: "I wonder if there is much clarity to be gained by constantly checking the forecasts from FiveThirtyEight, the polling averages from Real Clear Politics and the district-by-district ratings from the Cook Political Report." https://t.co/wRM1jj3dwm — PolitiTweet.org

@epidatageek @rollcall The column begins with a look-back at 1922 before we get to 2022. So both are right. — PolitiTweet.org

@BGrueskin @TudorDixon Imagine the speech lines that she rejected as too inflammatory before settling on this one. What makes this so appalling is that she is clearly reciting a script that was agreed upon by her staff. — PolitiTweet.org

Truman’s 1948 speeches from the rear of his train are a model for Democratic partisan oratory. Biden should study them. — PolitiTweet.org

You're in trouble when your spokeswoman has to put out this statement to try to quiet a furor: "Of course, John does not believe that women shouldn't vote or shouldn't work." https://t.co/afWMU4xIOr — PolitiTweet.org

@kkondik Since there is a limited number of winnable Democratic seats in a closely contested year, this is a significant GOP nomination screw-up. — PolitiTweet.org

In 1948, Harry Truman attacked the GOP for aiding "the gluttons of privilege." That style of political invective should be a model for Biden in the 2022 home stretch. In the @newrepublic, I rate Biden's campaign oratory compared to Truman's. https://t.co/ut1LKHq4PK — PolitiTweet.org

.@jilldlawrence argues: "Biden has correctly distinguished between 'mainstream Republicans' and Trump’s extreme 'MAGA Republicans.' They are different, and mainstream GOP politicians holding the line deserve credit." But don't vote for them with control of Congress at stake. — PolitiTweet.org

@monacharen It's damn hard. Both to resist and come up with something better. So far I've resisted and totally failed at figuring at a clever alternative phrase. Maybe a mocking reference to "Answered Prayers." — PolitiTweet.org

@rickperlstein @ktumulty @opinion_joe @maggieNYT My last thought: I thought you said that "withholding juicy stuff for the book" was a new trend. But White and Woodward and Bernstein did it in the major books of the 1960s and 1970s. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@rickperlstein @ktumulty @opinion_joe @maggieNYT You're right. But did any book on politics or public policy sell better than "Making of the President 1960" during the 1960s? You could also make a case that Woodward and Bernstein offered new detail (ie. "Deep Throat") to "All the President's Men" that didn't appear in the Post. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@rickperlstein @ktumulty @opinion_joe @maggieNYT Without getting too bogged down in this debate, I do want to cite the example of Teddy White from 1960 to 1972 who collected campaign anecdotes from people who knew that they would only appear in a book after the campaign was over. — PolitiTweet.org

@rickperlstein I don't know Baker, so I have no idea of this particular case. I am just talking about the general (not always correct) assumption that all information in books is deliberately withheld. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@rickperlstein Or, it may be the only way of getting the information. I realize that reporters often go too far in withholding information for their books. But I also know that this is not always the case. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
Not knowing any of the details of this particular book, I do know that sometimes sources will only cooperate if they assured that the story will be recounted in a book rather than something more immediate. — PolitiTweet.org
