@GiniaNYT A meal at 5:30 is called “cocktails” or a late lunch. Only exception is if you are in an assisted living facility and have no choice. — PolitiTweet.org

@chuckdelaware Natural empathy, yes. But charisma is the ability to transport an audience -- and I have never seen it with Biden, dating back to his 1987 run for the presidency. — PolitiTweet.org

FDR as a model for Biden set up unjustified Democratic disillusionment. As I warn in @newrepublic, "If Biden is still faulted by left-wingers for the failure of unicorns to graze on the White House lawn, then the Democrats are probably doomed in November." https://t.co/ExfAUezsfT — PolitiTweet.org

@MilliganSusan I recall a Gore speech in 2000 that went something like this: “I am fighting for your future. This is our fight. I am a fighter. I have fought for you.” It was like an English as a second language lesson. — PolitiTweet.org

As a NYC voter in Tuesday's primary, I am so sick of the buzz word "fight." Maloney: "I'm a fighter." Nadler slogan: "Fighting for us." Patel TV ad says he's "fighting for all of us." When Gore ran in 2000, "fight" was already a political cliche. What ever happened to lovers? — PolitiTweet.org

@nielslesniewski @BennettJohnT Thanks for the quick trip to the files on Liz being a loyal Cheney. That said, I so admire her stand on Trump that I almost forgive her embrace of torture. — PolitiTweet.org

This is, by the way, a wonderful weekend to begin reading a Salman Rushdie novel. "Midnight's Children" remains my favorite, but I also have fond memories of "The Moor's Last Sigh." — PolitiTweet.org

From my @newrepublic piece on 2022: "There is little certainty that Biden’s run of legislative achievements will pay political dividends in November. Politics is always a struggle for the future rather than a toast of gratitude for the past." https://t.co/x7qxjAjcY7 — PolitiTweet.org

In a smart column, @JillDLawrence contrasts John Cornyn's insistence that the Democrats won't be able to explain the climate bill in November with this USA Today headline: "Senate OKs Inflation Reduction Act to cut drug prices, combat climate change." https://t.co/yQESaNEyrS — PolitiTweet.org

From my story of running for Congress as an impoverished grad student: "Since my suit became my indispensable campaign wardrobe, I found a while-you-wait dry cleaner that would refresh the outfit while I hid in my underwear behind a changing curtain. " https://t.co/mRAjacsdTf — PolitiTweet.org

This week marks the 50th anniversary of one of the epic campaigns in American political history -- my quixotic race for Congress from Ann Arbor, running to the left of George McGovern. I tell all in my @rollcall column: https://t.co/mRAjacsdTf — PolitiTweet.org
