Warrior wonk works tho
I agree that Warren lost her footing until last night, but don’t agree that she must choose between these traits. It’s the combo that is her particular appeal! It’s not just macho. And it’s not just smartie-pants. It is the ability to meld both qualities.
And it is a form of female leadership that is everywhere out there in the world, she reflects back that reality.

Literally every single time my name is the Times. I mean, as a dyslexic, I find it kinda funny. nytimes.com/2020/02/21/sty…
Not as bad as the time it was spelled wrong in @MotherJones though cc @id_gordon
@MotherJones @id_gordon The best part of that one is that it was caught by my dad, a long-time @NatGeo editor.

Given that San Francisco is super progressive and also super gay, this is an odd choice sfchronicle.com/opinion/editor…
"Chronicle recommendations reflect the judgment of its editorial board, which consists of Publisher and CEO William Nagel, Editorial Page Editor John Diaz and members of the opinion staff." (Nagel is a Hearst/former Tronc exec)
Like if you're going to go with a moderate (though i think these lanes are over-indexed) why not Pete, who has a better chance and more local supports (wealthy and otherwise).

Leftists for Warren🌹🗽
@leftists4warren
After blatantly erasing Warren all week long, even to the extent of leaving her out of polls, the media is now as unanimous as they've ever been on the truth they simply can't ignore: Elizabeth Warren dominated the debate stage last night!

[Thread with receipts.]
"Warren dominated the stage, delivering striking answers in one of the best performances I’ve seen from a presidential candidate — not just in this cycle, but ever." vox.com/policy-and-pol…
"The Massachusetts senator and former Harvard Law School professor is a formidable debater in general but she was especially focused and forceful Wednesday. … She could hardly have hoped for a better night than she got." thehill.com/homenews/campa…

1. Elizabeth Warren is multifaceted, but in elections identity gets simplified. Her campaign needs to settle on which identity they want to go with: Warren the wonk or Warren the warrior.
2. Until last night, Warren the wonk has been the dominant message. She has a plan for that! This identity has some advantages: it plays to her unique strengths (mastery of policy), setting her against not just Trump but the other candidates.
3. Warren the wonk also played into her campaign's unity message (a wonk being able to figure out best policy solutions in a way that transcends ideological divide). It's a formidable message and won her a large, loyal following.

Like anyone who watched, I thought Warren was ferocious and impressive last night but I also thought she fundamentally failed to do what she needed to do. She has been struggling in the polls because Sanders has taken more of the progressive market share of the vote. 1/8
Warren never had a plan for dealing with Sanders. She assumed he would eventually fall in the polls and she would scoop up his supporters. She had toyed with drawing contrasts in the summer of 2018 (when she said she was a capitalist, not a socialist). 2/8
This was a great frame. She could have embraced it, avoided M4A and be positioned now as an acceptable more electable compromise to Sanders. Instead, she abandoned this frame once the campaign started and never allowed any gap between her and Sanders. 3/8

Yoongi holds his breath—this was the moment he was patiently awaiting. When JK would become more than just a face on the stage, and be a member of the band, a part of the team that makes this whole thing possible.

“Something sounds different.”

“Different?” The band leader+
repeats. “How? What?”

“The piano.”

Yoongi’s heart falls to his stomach. How could JK tell? Did he see where Yoongi went to when they entered? Did Yoongi mess up somewhere along the way? He doesn’t recall missing a key or placing his fingers out of line, but he may have.
“Ah, we have a new main pianist.”

“Is that what it is?” JK doesn’t even look at the band, at the piano, or any of it.

“Yes.”

“Let’s continue then.”

Yoongi is so startled by the non-compliment/non-ridicule that he misses the conductor counting them in, getting behind.

Last night, @maddow spoke in great depth about the ties between McConnell, the Deripaska alum plant in KY, & RU campaign $ to US legislators, RU election interference. This is crucial to understand. PLEASE watch the first 30 min. #ThursdayThoughts
2- @maddow shared 'details from a recent Pentagon white paper about how Russia secures its influence over other countries' politics & notes McConnell's role in facilitating an investment of hundreds of millions of dollars in his home state of Ky..aligns with RU's strategy.'
3-It's also imp to note that now that RU have succeeded in infiltrating the KY econ structure w this plant, they've sent letters to EIGHT other states to try the same thing there. Congress really does have to take a deep dive with McConnell's deal. This is very important.
