For the @BrennanCenter, I wrote an ode to the joys of personal campaigning in Iowa and New Hampshire: "At moments like this, I feel like I have stepped into a Frank Capra movie from the 1930s or a Norman Rockwell cover for the Saturday Evening Post." https://t.co/gKXCajv6Ry — PolitiTweet.org

Moi: "An unfortunate legacy of Watergate is that liberals see everything through a legalistic lens. As we argue over of what constitutes obstruction of justice, we lose sight of the Vladimir Putin-spawned conspiracy to undermine western democracy." https://t.co/66NEoSiI5f — PolitiTweet.org

It's hard to top this one as a theatrical meltdown. The crew "fearful for their safety." Long "troubling, angry" voicemails. And then not learning her lines after six months. It's a great theatrical story -- and a terribly sad one for Faye Dunaway. — PolitiTweet.org

@dkahanerules I'm dying to know your plan to use the courts to strengthen the free press and the First Amendment. — PolitiTweet.org

Can't wait for the first male politician who "brands" himself by not wearing pants. — PolitiTweet.org
stuart stevens @stuartpstevens
Some consultant told @Jim_Jordan to “brand” himself by not wearing a coat and he bought it. https://t.co/S5Vfp6eOeI

Moi: "As the Republicans tried to undermine Mueller by embracing every handy conspiracy theory (somehow they missed the faking of the moon landing), the Democrats kept reminding the nation that Trump lied about having no business interests in Russia." https://t.co/66NEoSiI5f — PolitiTweet.org

From my @guardian piece on today's hearings: "By the time the first hearing ended at lunchtime, it was not safe for impeachment-minded Democrats to pass too close to an open window on a high floor." But then -- Shazam! -- Adam Schiff to the rescue: https://t.co/66NEoSiI5f — PolitiTweet.org

As I'm watching the Intelligence hearing on my desktop, an ad for a play in NY popped up on my screen. The play by Halley Feiffer is "Moscow, Moscow, Moscow, Moscow, Moscow, Moscow." — PolitiTweet.org

@mcottle So much for the theory that Stefanik represents a new generation and a new tone in the Republican Party. — PolitiTweet.org

@lrozen I'm as baffled as you are. — PolitiTweet.org

You're over-estimating Zebley's fame. I would add three more 9's to the right of the decimal point. — PolitiTweet.org
Laura Rozen @lrozen
why are the republicans so worried about zebley, who 99.999 of americans have not heard of before today.

@mattizcoop Is this like the baseball shift? How many of them are to the right of second base? — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@fmkaplan Probably, you're right. But Mueller is getting closer and closer to that moment in his answers. — PolitiTweet.org

If I were Nadler, I would ask Mueller if he wanted to make a final statement about the Republican attacks on his integrity. — PolitiTweet.org

Just remember that the oldest professional baseball team is the Cincinnati Reds. Of course, they’re socialists. — PolitiTweet.org

Well, Republicans manage to slip “socialists” even into the Mueller hearing. They’d probably recite the baseball sc… https://t.co/qXu33C7bNa

@charlesmurray Another false diagnosis. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@charlesmurray I agree with you on the stupidity of raise your hands questions. I remember how one of those particularly embarrassed Jon Huntsman in 2012. But I am not a doctor -- nor do I play one on TV -- and therefore I refrain from any medical diagnoses of Biden or Trump. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
I can see your case about Bernie, Warren and Harris. But also “no” on Biden, Bennet or Klobuchar? Scoop Jackson isn’t running this year. — PolitiTweet.org

@daveweigel What sent me around the bend on this was the NRCC press release calling Spanberger "deranged." It struck me that the GOP's lesson from 2018 was that they did not go far enough in demonizing House Democrats. — PolitiTweet.org

@CharlesPPierce @johnastoehr @rollcall I will spend the rest of the day looking for the best quote on death-bed conversions. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
I am not, by nature, a leftwing true believer. But I don't understand the case for Democratic moderation in 2020 when Trump will call everything "socialism" and say that Republicans will be sent to the Gulag for having plastic straws. My @rollcall column: https://t.co/89ha8tA3hv — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
In this smart column (where I get a cameo), @1PatriciaMurphy explains why governors get no respect these days -- they can't race over from the Capitol to appear on cable TV. Another reason why cable news distorts political traditions: https://t.co/qRXI7UmUQs — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@MollyJongFast A strong piece of advice. Individual polls fluctuate. Follow the averages at FiveThirtyEight instead. What they show is that Trump, as always, is in the low 40s when other president with strong economies have been in the low 60s. https://t.co/YwxAriY5wo — PolitiTweet.org

I'm not sure that 2020 should be about Trump's racism. But @johnastoehr makes an interesting case about why it should: https://t.co/MXdKxhV7Ks — PolitiTweet.org

@JillDLawrence Why blow my cover? I'm just an average guy looking for the best things to highlight on Twitter. — PolitiTweet.org

@jonc901 @JamesFallows My guess is that if his troublesome back could have taken it, Wellstone would have run as an antiwar candidate in 2004. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@CharlesPPierce One more Wellstone point. He understand that integrity was at the core of his political appeal and that it would have cost him more votes if he went against conscience and cravenly voted for the Iraq War. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@CharlesPPierce Yes. I was in Minnesota about 10 days before he died and all the indicators said that Wellstone was going to prevail. And he was going to win even though he voted against the Iraq War, despite the warnings of Tom Daschle and others that it would kill his career. — PolitiTweet.org
