From my close personal friends at Facebook: "Walter, we care about you and the memories you share here. We thought you'd like to look back on this post from 5 years ago." What kindness, caring and consideration. By the way, the memory is the cover of my book "Hustling Hitler." — PolitiTweet.org

@EJKessler From her Times obit: "The greater the achievements, the more I love him." Here's the obit that prompted the Tom Lehner song: https://t.co/16hmRSJSLC — PolitiTweet.org

As much as I have admired Linda Ronstadt since the Stone Poneys, no one in world history can compare with this woman for the weirdest celebrity relationship run (hat tip: Tom Lehrer): https://t.co/ZCRoUAW6jS — PolitiTweet.org
Alex Shephard @alex_shephard
Linda Ronstadt dating Jerry Brown, Jim Carrey, and George Lucas in a ten year span might be the weirdest celebrity relationship run

@DavidKusnet @kkondik I remember Gephardt telling the story in 2003 about going to Texas in 1988 to campaign in the Super Tuesday primaries, turning on his TV set and only seeing Dukakis ads. As he said, "That's when I knew it was over." — PolitiTweet.org

Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@DavidKusnet @kkondik I covered Gephadt extensively in 2004 (see "One-Car Caravan") and a bit in 1988. The problem with this alternative history is that Gephardt, for all his virtues, wasn't a compelling candidate. That's why he ran fourth in Iowa in 2004 behind Kerry, Edwards and Dean. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@kkondik I always envisioned a time travel movie where a 21st century Democrat would go back to 1982 to defeat the Democratic ticket in Massachusetts — Dukakis for governor and Kerry for Lta. Gov. — PolitiTweet.org

Harris quote would be so much more convincing if she didn’t preface it by saying, “I’ll be very honest.” Lines like this are almost always a tell and invite immediate skepticism. — PolitiTweet.org

@MichaelMcGough3 @AstorAaron Pretty close to 100 percent on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. And it was probably 95 percent before the governor brought back an indoor mask mandate. — PolitiTweet.org

A smart column. Implicit in the column is the idea that the Watergate Myth has convinced Democrats that there will be a dramatic reckoning that will change everything. More likely, according to @ktumulty, is that democracy will gain from the hearings even if the Democrats don't. — PolitiTweet.org

@mattizcoop Probably too late to do much on redistricting other than increasing the grounds for law suits. But I always thought that voting rights was so much more important than the air castles of reconciliation. — PolitiTweet.org

@Chris_arnade @RadioFreeTom Mostly agree. The question with Omicron is whether this is the last scary widespread variant or an event that will push a return to normal life to 2023 and beyond? So much of the politics of 2022 depends on that answer. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@Chris_arnade @RadioFreeTom Important caveat: None of us can imagine what the mood of the nation will be like if Covid is tamed in, say, six months. — PolitiTweet.org

@tbird_57 @rollcall Trust me, the January 6 commission is more important than anything. You can have honorable disagreements over, say, the federal government mandating early voting. But you can't disagree over a coup attempt. — PolitiTweet.org

@NixonValet @rollcall Both the historical record and John Warner's recollections are clear. This is how you lose a close election with honor. Please convey my respects to the former president. — PolitiTweet.org

Me in @rollcall: "Writing about torture during the Iraq War, I never imagined I could ever lionize a Cheney. But there are moments when the single thing we share -- a fervent belief in democracy -- is more important than all the differences between us." https://t.co/WuiGanLKbt — PolitiTweet.org

Are we really that desperate for a 2024 presidential race in 2021? Maybe wait until the pandemic is over before we go down this ludicrous speculative route. Also, a similar 2013 list would never have mentioned Bernie Sanders. https://t.co/Ub7XBxl4k0 — PolitiTweet.org
