Maybe the short 48 hour window is just right for Biden. Prolonged exposure is not his friend! 47 hours would be even better. https://t.co/NAtwRYidmH

Also suggests the "Hollywood Effect" — idea that within a given education category, compensation gap between "stars" and so-so performers greater than it used to be. https://t.co/By1MpO0Rk2 https://t.co/vcqpgsX5I3

To all those who've been suggesting that @RealDonaldTrump could have been beaten in 2016 if only he hadn't faced a divided field of regulars — which GOP candidate was going to beat him, exactly (if only everyone else dropped out)? Jeb? Cruz? Rubio? Kasich?

Looks like he didn't get it. (Separate events with Buttigieg, and with Klobuchar.) Where is Leo Beebe when you need him? https://t.co/wW4SQ3b5os

Me: At last the @NYTimes has someone for the Carr column who's willing to write something that might annoy @NYTimes editors.
Me II: He's telling them they're too good. (Because they hired him.)
Me: Oh, right. Good point. He's softening them up! That's it.https://t.co/V5SQxCnFy8— Mickey Kaus (@kausmickey) March 3, 2020

Alternative explanation that applies to Booker, Warren, Harris: Chasing after wokeness. Leading cause of death among Dem presidential candidacies. All 3 would've done better if they'd just tried to be moderate Dems, no? At least the first two seem potentially strong candidates. https://t.co/Uj5fKATdPn

Why, yes, @riteaid pharmacy, I'd love to key in my "Wellness" number on the same touchpad used by everyone who gets sick and needs medicine in my town. Thanks! You've clearly thought of everything.

It's all about 15%, says @greenfield64. If Biden, Bloomberg & Warren all come in under the 15% viability line-and they're close-Bernie can get the bulk of CA's delegates with 35% of the vote. If they're over the line, delegates get split much more evenly. https://t.co/jYzpAPn7FA

A big issue is whether Kotkin's "clerisy" of non-profit types etc. likes or hates the FAAMG "oligarchy." Seems like "hates" is still a possibility. (See Krein https://t.co/t0euZnwXFc) They love @laurenepowell, but do they love Apple? https://t.co/El3mn9SzDM

"One of the upshots of this concentration of economic power is that entrepreneurship is now declining even in the capitalist hotbed of America." Uses Google as example–you become part of their Borg. Could've used Amazon, no? https://t.co/El3mn9SzDM
