The interesting dynamic at play here is that some of the moderate/centrist/conservative/swing state/district Dems are balking at 1. policies that are popular, even in purple/red districts/states 2. the agenda of Biden, who ran as a moderate/centrist. — PolitiTweet.org

Raphael Warnock has already accomplished something huge this year---winning a Senate seat in Georgia and thereby ensuring Democrats have total control of Washington. Now, he is working hard on what would be a second huge accomplishment. https://t.co/rnlPUZY5MC — PolitiTweet.org

Great piece by @jaywillis about the shortcomings of legal journalism, which shares many of the same flaws as political journalism (reporters too inside the system, fear of offending Republicans.) https://t.co/EJHJuBqWYW — PolitiTweet.org

I initially thought the Democrats' strategy of going all in on Gavin in the CA recall was dumb and risky. I was wrong. Larry Elder of course helped too. What we learned from the recall, with some insights from top Newsom adviser @ASDem. https://t.co/RI1BCxeNkN — PolitiTweet.org

I had the same question. I think the latter. But some of the things she did and said during the nomination process were, if not quite trolling, fairly open acknowledgements that she is part of a conservative movement that clearly sought and won control of the courts. — PolitiTweet.org

Education is creating some divides, but income really isn't. (So "class" is not a clear factor in our politics.) Biden won the highest income cohort and also the lowest, Trump the middle. https://t.co/esYiYLIJtY — PolitiTweet.org

Lots of great data here from Pew. (This was released a few months ago and is better than the exit polls.) White and Latino voters are divided by education (those without four-year degrees were much more likely to back Trump), black college and black non-college were 92-8 Biden. — PolitiTweet.org

The electoral gains/losses conversation is important, but I worry at times obscures broader dynamics. Biden did as well and probably better with Latino voters (59-38 per Pew), than with white college graduates (57-42.) https://t.co/CFnzMgzYUr — PolitiTweet.org

Finally, yes, there is still lots of flawed political journalism. But when I read Alex Burns, Astead Herndon, Lisa Lerer, Dave Weigel and others, I see real efforts to grapple with race, gender, and identity in ways that were not as common 10 years ago. — PolitiTweet.org

Political journalism was Politico-ized for much of the 2010s, in my view. I looked at the pluses and minuses of this approach and the signs political journalism is shifting (slightly) in a better direction. With thoughts from @jayrosen_nyu and @nikkiusher https://t.co/UZckKSRcan — PolitiTweet.org

The stimulus bill was intended to put $1.9 trillion into the hands of Americans/states/the country in the next few years. Some of the spending in this reconciliation bill is scheduled for 2031. (Which is why the Manchin inflation op-ed was so odd.) https://t.co/iRmQwkyrRJ — PolitiTweet.org
