And it's working. He thanks you for helping out.

stuff is aimed at Hillary, backing her into the corner of releasing *her* tons of actually secret and embarrassing stuff. Jeb Crow Shrub doesn't need me for name recognition.

Actually, this fake-transparency gambit might backfire: His rivals and media *should* escalate to, "If you're releasing THIS, what about this OTHER stuff (and more and more)?!1" He's releasing ONLY harmless stuff, not the "good" stuff.

As soon as he announces a run he'll have to disclose all of his business connections. In the meantime, he can start distancing himself from the corporations that are profiting from Common Core which is his baby and is universally hated by most on the right and many on the left here.

How many pay attention to twitter?

[font size=5]Ted Kennedy interview [/font]
Mudd is [FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: yellow"]often remembered for an interview[/FONT] he conducted with Senator Edward M. Kennedy for a CBS-TV special on November 4, 1979, Teddy, telecast three days before Kennedy announced his challenge to President Jimmy Carter for the 1980 Democratic Presidential nomination. In addition to questioning Kennedy about the Chappaquiddick incident, Mudd asked, "Senator, why do you want to be President?" [FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: yellow"]Kennedy's stammering answer[/FONT] which has been described as "incoherent and repetitive"[19] as well as "vague, unprepared"[20] raised serious questions about his motivation in seeking the office, and [FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: yellow"]marked the beginning of the sharp decline in Kennedy's impressive poll numbers[/FONT].[19] Mr. Carter defeated Kennedy 50 percent to 38 percent in the Democratic primary vote. Although the Kennedy family refused to permit any further interviews by Mudd, [FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: yellow"]the interview helped strengthen Mudd's reputation as a leading political reporter[/FONT].[21]

The broadcaster and blogger Hugh Hewitt and the Washington Post columnist Michael Gerson have used [FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: yellow"]the term "Roger Mudd moment"[/FONT] to describe [FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: yellow"]a self-inflicted disastrous encounter with the press by a presidential candidate[/FONT].[20]

...when there were only three channels.

The number that would pay attention to a twitter meme is an insignificant fraction of that number.

first-hand witnesses to an event (either the t.v. of yore or the Twitter of today) and the ephemeral rise or collapse of public figures. At some point the event itself with its original audience is propelled by the chattering class into "what everybody knows."

But now my point is becoming, I didn't dream I was going to have to defend an innocuously appropriate topic for discussion so much and so humorlessly especially since the link contains some chuckles .
