@Bencjacobs @NickRiccardi i mean, put me squarely in the camp that thought MR came closer to losing in the '12 primary than is maybe remembered. i just don't see how that failure (after '08, too) turns into a '16 win. wouldn't be the only reason a primary campaign that year woulda been tough, either — PolitiTweet.org

@LoganDobson @NickRiccardi only after the fact did us reporters recognize that importance — PolitiTweet.org

@NickRiccardi hard to envision how Romney losing to Santorum in '12, with something like a 100-to-1 cash edge*, would convince donors and other Rs he could turn around and win the '16 primary *all figures approximate but it really was a huge disparity — PolitiTweet.org

Anyway, that's a movie that made $183m domestic in 1993 and replayed endlessly on CBS in the 90s. Crazy stuff. — PolitiTweet.org

And Richard Kimball is still reduced, at the end, to finding justice through his own hand, presumably because he realized finding the justice system was broken — PolitiTweet.org

Alex Roarty @Alex_Roarty

Even then, when the truth is breaking out for all to see, the Chicago PD settles on a policy of ~vigilante justice~ to take out this rogue of the justice system. Even Gerard now works outside the system (“arrest me” he tells the Chicago cops) — PolitiTweet.org

Alex Roarty @Alex_Roarty

He does come around eventually. But I think we’re to see Gerard as an exceptional agent who proves the rule — PolitiTweet.org

Alex Roarty @Alex_Roarty

Leo Gerard, played abely by Tommy Lee Jones, literally says “I don’t care” when confronted with the truth. Astonishing! — PolitiTweet.org

Alex Roarty @Alex_Roarty

That man, seeking the justice that is rightfully his, breaks free of the system (literally), only to find an agency dedicated solely to upholding its verdicts is ruthlessly chasing him down — PolitiTweet.org

To recap: The rep of a multi-billion dollar corporation manipulates the justice system to wrongly send a man to jail — PolitiTweet.org

Was re-watching "The Fugitive" recently, a beloved movie from my past, and realized its politics are ... pretty radical? Like, kinda crazy that it came out at the height of the tough-on-crime 90s — PolitiTweet.org

Val Demings says Biden's student loan forgiveness plan is a "band aid" on the rising cost of higher education, but praises it as 'targeted to the middle class' -- and avoids the type of criticism we saw from Bennet/Ryan https://t.co/Qeg5HLOvN4 — PolitiTweet.org
