Campaign surrogates are about to get even more important as the senators running for president are sidelined. Here's a look at who's hitting the trail and how they can be helpful: https://t.co/Qo85Gcn242 — PolitiTweet.org

Feels like HRC has been waiting to be asked about this —> https://t.co/OjoIueMsXB — PolitiTweet.org

Sanders distances himself from op-ed in which his surrogate said Biden has a "big corruption problem"—but the Sanders campaign blasted the op-ed out in @davidsirota's campaign newsletter earlier today (https://t.co/9HBUXA2r5a) https://t.co/ZcLXm4ADNn — PolitiTweet.org

Warren is asked if SCOTUS rules against her wealth tax, what's her "backup plan." She doesn't offer an alternative but argues that a wealth tax is constitutional, pointing to a 1700s-era SCOTUS decision upholding a tax on carriages. — PolitiTweet.org

Warren, speaking to a packed house in Grimes, jokes that billionaires don't like her wealth tax — "some have gone on TV and cried...others have run for president — figured it was cheaper than a 2 cent wealth tax." — PolitiTweet.org

Via @HunterMw, Sanders is asked in NH about the infighting in the Dem primary and “what is your strategy for keeping the movement going?” He suggests “media has its schtick,” but candidates will focus on the issues: https://t.co/ij8iC4IyHR — PolitiTweet.org

Klobuchar’s 1st Q is on climate change, but the questioner says she already talked about it. Klobuchar jokes “that’s not something you hear in the Senate, we always say ‘Everything’s been said but I haven’t said it!’” — PolitiTweet.org

Klobuchar says on Medicare for all “I know” the votes aren’t there to pass it, noting that 2/3rds of Democrats in the Senate haven’t signed onto the Sanders bill. — PolitiTweet.org

@stephenatap Sanders' team emphasizing the 1st alignment results could make things messy on caucus night, because both the IDP & the DNC have emphasized that the delegate count is the only metric that matters. https://t.co/x1nA9qXvmh — PolitiTweet.org

Alexandra Jaffe @ajjaffe

@stephenatap I've got a look at how the campaigns are going to spin all the new data. Sanders' campaign says they plan to win the 1st & 2nd alignment & delegate count. But they're emphasizing the 1st alignment as "the most accurate portrayal of who won": https://t.co/x1nA9qXvmh — PolitiTweet.org
