It’s not official till @jaketapper posts our equivalent of the bat signal, an eagle flying. But I’ll take the W and move on. — PolitiTweet.org

@anacaprana @TonyRomm I mean, 38 points before end of Q3. I guess we can focus our ire on the defense. — PolitiTweet.org

@TonyRomm It’s really strange having a great WR who a) gets open & b) catches balls thrown anywhere in his vicinity & c) then runs forward for more yards. I forgot what it’s like to cheer for a team with great WRs. — PolitiTweet.org

To be clear, it's gas prices that have vanished from GOP ads: "About 1 in every 6 ads mentioned 'gas prices' in July, but only 1% of ads mentioned the words in early September ..." Instead, Republican ads now focus on crime, almost 30% mentioning crime. https://t.co/UQVGVOYK0M — PolitiTweet.org

Pretty amazing admission by Rs here - inflation isn’t cutting it as campaign issue: “Broadening the message is going to be necessary.” Just 1% of GOP ads now mention inflation. Via @michaelscherer @jdawsey1 @iarnsdorf @JStein_WaPo https://t.co/UQVGVOYK0M — PolitiTweet.org

Your Sunday @PKCapitol: In PA, the first-time candidate is demanding 5 debates with a seasoned veteran. In GA, the incumbent wants at least 3 debates with a rookie candidate. The debate about Senate debates scrambles old rules. https://t.co/j1YatB6Ofp — PolitiTweet.org

The plaque for Billy got permanently set in place just before Labor Day, by the Senate side barricades where he gave his life protecting Capitol on Good Friday 2021. https://t.co/mAS6cdgbGn — PolitiTweet.org

@JakeSherman @JFKucinich @kasie @pennstatetom Not a lotta original thought inside KOM's world. It's basically just @FrankLuntz rehash from their College R days together, longing to recreate '94 Contract. Re-read the Pledge to America in 2010, and then how we all wrote about how actual candidates hated the Pledge. — PolitiTweet.org

@kamalastw @TonyFratto @KevinMaddenDC Spotlight is a great flick. And his character, Robbie, is the most complex, guy who missed the scandal for years. And while it’s not a movie, please watch Dopesick. Painfully good. — PolitiTweet.org

@MarkLeibovich @davecokin @RalstonReports @jmartNYT @bresreports Biggest reporting failure never making it to Searchlight while HMR was with us. Believe his inscription to my copy of that was “this is my home.” That’s it! — PolitiTweet.org

Yesterday’s win over Navy was 1st against I-A opponent since young @JoeFlacco put up 59 in Annapolis as Hens also won that game by a TD. Pretty sure then-Senate Foreign Relations chair attended that game as guest of Navy. Great start to ‘22 season. https://t.co/tqZcXSi9Xy — PolitiTweet.org

This is 2 House special defeats in August for the Rs. The Alaska result - a special timed to a primary where more Rs than Ds likely to vote - cuts at NRCC spin about NY special. It’s weird out there. A crazy final 2-plus months ahead. — PolitiTweet.org

Paul Kane @pkcapitol

So many crazy things in this McConnell-vs-Thiel story about GOP Senate races, from @isaacstanbecker @KnowlesHannah @iarnsdorf Not least of which is I'm old enough to remember when these types of MM-PT talks might've broken FEC coordination laws. https://t.co/69hqDrbr9E — PolitiTweet.org

The GOP opponent of @RepCindyAxne is cohosting the election-hoax-asserting Republican who beat @Liz_Cheney in Iowa. Never seen an R or D show up in Iowa before formally winning a House seat. https://t.co/JMj8MtdpRT — PolitiTweet.org

“… confluence of today’s forces chipping away at faith in government institutions would not be recognizable to Foley and Michel,” writes @asfram, ending 40~-yr run covering Congress. A true legend, I’ve never known Capitol without Alan. Read this. https://t.co/J2Rz0zmPVE — PolitiTweet.org

Weekend @PKCapitol: the midterm dynamic has shifted so I pulled together 4 vets of 2010 & 2018 - @Ken_Spain @JesseFFerguson @meredithk27 @mattsgorman - to debate this shift, through their own wave experience. Four pros who know what they’re discussing. https://t.co/Q0ZSDz1DOc — PolitiTweet.org

As a child @CarlosLozadaWP would sit w/ his father as he’d read books to try to better learn English, including this 1976 print. Carlos showed it to us today, his last at WaPo.

Your midweek @PKCapitol - About last night: As preposterous as this sounds, Dems have slight chance to hold House & gain 2 in Senate - sidelining Manchinema’s leverage. Still a long shot, but policy impact would be yuuuuge. Voting rights. Roe. Child tax. https://t.co/8NCsfQXQcn — PolitiTweet.org

Those of us - reporters, hacks, flacks, strategists, pollsters, swamp creatures - who lived through '94, '06, '10, '14, '18 midterms have NEVER seen POTUS's party political climate change. Other than for the worse. ... We will do our best to figure this out. Give us time, pls. — PolitiTweet.org

Overlooked tonight: @MarkwayneMullin won nomination for Senate. He's Trump-endorsed MAGA acolyte ... Except, not really. He hugged the cop who killed 1/6 rioter & was ready to fight J6'ers to the death on House floor. My look at a complicated dude. https://t.co/vmGx6OD0ig — PolitiTweet.org

So @AnnahBackstrom we decided only way to celebrate your 1st birthday at WaPo was a double-barreled primary night in 2 major states, including ideological, generational divisions. And a special NY19 election! Have fun, and listen to @SpeakerBoehner: https://t.co/6C7uDjo1c2 — PolitiTweet.org
