@mattizcoop @DrewSav As I recall, Asad also made Clinton wait for about two hours when they first met in Geneva on Clinton's first trip to Europe. Who could have imagined that the ophthalmologist would be the brutal one in the family — PolitiTweet.org

@mattizcoop @DrewSav Never forget when an Israeli cab driver in Tel Aviv tried to sell me on taking a guided tour with him the next day. I explained, "I'd love to but I have to go to Damascus." I'm amazed the stunned cab driver didn't get into a multi-car pile up. — PolitiTweet.org

@mattizcoop @DrewSav Charlevoix, Quebec, is very beautiful. And I believe we were both together at the G-7 in Halifax under Clinton. — PolitiTweet.org

@MichaelMcGough3 I didn't know the context. Lucille Ball saying it in the 1950s. Nah. Robert McNamara saying it at a board meeting in Detroit. Yeah. — PolitiTweet.org

@Profepps @MichaelMcGough3 We seem to be referring to the same newspaper column from 1954. You went to the OED and I went to a newspaper data base to get the same result. — PolitiTweet.org

@MichaelMcGough3 We have an answer. It wasn't too common in the 1950s, but it was denounced as an example of creeping "governmentese" in this 1954 language column: https://t.co/X4N0rwcSq0 — PolitiTweet.org

I'm just trying to figure out how one would work this into an attack video. A GOP Senate primary attack ad is pretty easy. But a general election attack ad -- now that's a challenge. — PolitiTweet.org

@mcpli You are conflating two narratives -- both about democracy. Yes, the loss of competitive districts is a compelling argument against gerrymandering. But democracy is also on the ballot in 2022 -- and a GOP redistricting advantage would be devastating. — PolitiTweet.org

@powellnyt @joelmsiegel @danarubinstein @hunterw @JonLemire @NYCMayor Cuomo, of course, made de Blasio regularly go to the gym in Park Slope. It was also Cuomo who was the mastermind behind the presidential race. — PolitiTweet.org

@MichaelMcGough3 I'm on a Gallup Panel (really) that asked me to rate a government officials about two weeks ago. Not wanting to be a total partisan shill, I felt I had to approve someone with GOP lineage. And Liz Cheney wasn't a Gallup option. If the choice was Roberts vs McCarthy, it's easy. — PolitiTweet.org

I so anticipate the moment when de Blasio will add the fourth "very." Nothing in my life gives me so much anticipation as the chance to watch de Blasio reenact his presidential campaign. — PolitiTweet.org

He owes you a lunch. "Five Decembers" is as good as advertised. I was reading it until 3 am last night and I just finished it. In fact, I would have even read the extra 60,00 words that were supposedly cut. A terrific melding of noir and World War II that I heartily recommend. — PolitiTweet.org

@jpitney @ktumulty I don't have any sources handy, but that was about when Clinton was getting TV. Worth noting that Obama moved to Indonesia (not exactly a TV hub) when he was six years old. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@ktumulty Part of the problem with Trump is that he had TV from a very early age. Bill Clinton, in contrast, didn't have TV until he was about eight because it was hard to get anything other than static in Hope and Hot Springs in the early 1950s. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@jonathanalter What Democrats missed is the desire of all incumbents to have the safest reelection possible. Given a choice of maximizing GOP national numbers by running in a 53% Trump district or maximizing their own safety by running in a 63% district, most GOP legislators opted for safety. — PolitiTweet.org
