@fbutry @FumbleOffense4U @jwoodchips @blueshirtbuddha Hard to make that case. On every ranking I've ever seen on best pitchers in baseball history, Seaver is way ahead of Ford (and Ford rarely even on list). LA Koufax vs Seaver is a good comparison but NY Koufax was not great. — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

@fbutry @FumbleOffense4U @jwoodchips @blueshirtbuddha Koufax was not that good in NY, only LA. Seaver was much better in NY. — PolitiTweet.org

NY's all time baseball lineup (IMO): 1B: Gehrig 2B: Robinson SS: Jeter 3B: Rodriguez C: Berra OF: Mays, Ruth, DiMaggio P: Seaver RP: Rivera DH: Mantle Does this team beat the all time lineup of all the other teams combined? — PolitiTweet.org

Another example why people should trust a vaccine THAT IS APPROVED FOR PUBLIC USE: AstraZeneca pauses covid vaccine trial as participant illness discovered - which is what they are supposed to do - this is why we have trials and this result is not hidden https://t.co/xjzDMpD65K — PolitiTweet.org

What's needed from a media perspective is a place where real solutions based on facts/data can be discussed, analyzed & advanced We suffer from a lack of support for good ideas (carbon fee, EITC, impact finance, mixed model universal healthcare) in favor of talking points — PolitiTweet.org

Joe Biden has lots of terrific plans and policies. And he's a good person who will surround himself with competent people. Let's not forget to talk about that! In 2016 a lot of time was spent talking about how bad Trump is as opposed to the Dem vision..... — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

Yup, and the bigger question is why does the media spend anytime on Cohen or Scaramucci or other former Trump enablers who change their tune out of pure self interest? Instead, tell the story of normal, hard working decent Americans whose families been hurt by Trump's policies — PolitiTweet.org

Addiction - opioid, substance, and alcohol related - were at crisis levels pre-Covid, and now it is even worse. https://t.co/hogqz4dhdi — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

What would be useful: A bipartisan group of political leaders, celebrities, influencers etc to start doing public service announcements about how a vaccine approved for public use by the FDA will be safe. If a vaccine is approved and people don't take it, lives will be lost — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

Terrific polices, much more responsive to what workers need than Trump. Add "increase the Earned Income Tax Credit" to the list and it is a great agenda for workers. — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

How much has Fed policy impacted the stock market? Consider this: the average price-to-earnings ratio for public companies are now at almost all time highs and yet the underlying economic conditions have rarely been worse The withdrawal of Fed stimulus will one day be painful — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

I'm from a union family so Labor Day has always been important. This Labor Day lets give thanks to the essential workers who did their job everyday during Covid - you know who they are. While lots of people "zoomed" from home, they got up every day and went to work. — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

@Bishop4House They are both public health recommendations, so they are not actually different as a matter of public health policy. — PolitiTweet.org

Rules are rules. https://t.co/uX3zv1rX8p — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

If you are telling people not to trust the Covid vaccine when it is approved for public use you are basically the same as people who say "don't wear masks" — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

@complainster The science it determined by life long public health officials who work in the FDA, not by Trump. — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

It is more than just insulting to the public health officials in the FDA to imply they would ignore public safety & rush vaccine approval for broad public use to satisfy Trump It is also deadly; it undermines confidence in the vaccine, result in reduced uptake & costs lives — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

Scientists, governments and pharmaceutical companies are collaborating globally & using powerful technology to produce vaccine in record time. It will be a remarkable achievement. The fact that we've allowed the narrative to be that it's "unsafe" is reckless & will cost lives. https://t.co/Dq6SActNfq — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

This conversation, particularly as it relates to telemedicine, focuses on how Covid has accelerated things that were going to happen eventually. — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

Acceleration of certain trends will be an important theme post Covid. Changes were already occurring - in how we work, learn, live, shop, spend - and these changes are now accelerating, creating new challenges but also new opportunities. — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

Another example of why a vaccine (when approved) will be safe The companies developing the vaccine care about safety, the FDA cares about safety, Fauci cares about safety. Anyone talking about a FDA approved covid vaccine not being safe is irresponsible https://t.co/EC3jNOCsnW — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

The new communication services that Covid has accelerated adoption of (like zoom) transforms work & allow individuals with certain skills to be more productive & drive will more inequality. A massive expansion of the EITC is desperately needed to help workers w/o those advantages — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

I blame the anti-vaccine movement & the media for this depressing perspective on a vaccine The anti-vaccine movements has never been based in data And the media has dangerously spun a narrative that the FDA & Fauci would let Trump rush vaccine. Shameful https://t.co/pNzsFMUfXT — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

When we are ultimately on the other side of Covid, a non-political, data driven analysis of various approaches - and what worked and what didn't - needs to be done to ensure we have a global roadmap for the next one going forward. https://t.co/5eB8rHAt1S — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

This is good (and I was for John Kasich speaking at convetntion as proof we are a big tent party) and insider types love these stories but I'm not sure they move the needle on turning out Dems in purple states, which at this point is critical. — PolitiTweet.org

The new Congress will probably be more Democratic — and more moderate The name of the game in Congress is building majorities, and there simply is no doubt that the 2018 House majority was built by moderate Democrats. https://t.co/0xyEVZFWgQ — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

The work product of the Lincoln Project is fantastic (some of the best ads ever) but we need to remember that it may be more impactful on Republicans and Democrats in big (already blue) cities (at least judging by who is talking about them) than turning out Dems in purple states — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

To put in perspective how bad Covid hit New York, California and Florida, which have had a very tough run of Covid in last few months, have had less than 1/5th and 1/3rd the fatalities as a percentage of their population respectively compared to New York. — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

.@secupp is correct about what we should want from gov't: "a government you simply don't have to think about all that often" Politics has become too personality/tabloid centric. Instead, it should be efficient, competent, honest & productive (even boring) https://t.co/KxCvQYqTpW — PolitiTweet.org
