"Biden’s speech Tuesday calling for a Senate rules change was snubbed by some civil rights groups upset that he didn’t spotlight voting rights from the start. But I don’t see what difference it would have made." That's via a right-on @JillDLawrence column: https://t.co/SXcVE2bAnz — PolitiTweet.org

@HelenKennedy Minimum salary needed to recruit someone with these unique talents. The unique talents are, of course, being brother of the mayor. — PolitiTweet.org

@ThomSeaton @rollcall Put it down as 80 percent Biden team’s leak-proof style and 20 percent the added difficulties of reporting during a pandemic that makes face-to-face encounters hard. — PolitiTweet.org

@JMilesColeman Election Night 1980: At a party filled with Carter aides, Senate staff directors began offering the ousted White House officials potential jobs at 8 pm. By 11 pm, almost everyone in the room was unemployed. It was like a mill town when the mill just closed. — PolitiTweet.org

From my @rollcall column: "Most partisan Democrats — particularly the party activists — treat each legislative setback as if the last polar icecap had just melted. Never in modern memory has a political party that controls the White House and Congress been this pessimistic." — PolitiTweet.org

Biden: "I'm tired of being quiet." Alas, being noisy may not be any more successful as a strategy. Sometimes the votes just are not there. — PolitiTweet.org

It's a pity that Rand Paul's execrable histrionics at Senate Covid hearing get disproportionate attention. In contrast, Republicans Romney, Murkowski, Burr and Collins have asked smart questions. — PolitiTweet.org

I argue in @rollcall: "Exaggerated fears of gerrymandering contributed to the biggest political mistake of the Biden presidency — larding the $3.5 trillion Build Back Better legislation with the entire Democratic wish list." https://t.co/SL4GKNBHDO — PolitiTweet.org

Wait. I thought that Kristof was so busy talking to local media that he didn't have time for national media. Now we have evidence that this paragon of journalistic values is stiffing everyone. I am baffled by who's advising him and why Kristoff is listening to their bum advice. — PolitiTweet.org
