@SpencerSeverino 2/2 blocking the action. If he had taken the traditional approach of a veto, then some Reps would have to vote to over ride-risking his wrath. I'm just trying to think -- why would he, surrounded by intelligent sycophant advisors, say I didn't need to this?

[John T Jezuit @SeoulDad]

@SpencerSeverino 1/2 Been thinking about your Tweet all day -- what if he's not? What if he's playing chess instead of (like many people assume) checkers? One of the advantages of his strategy is he, in the eyes of his base, did deliver on his campaign promise, but dem Dems (led by a woman!)

[John T Jezuit @SeoulDad]

@SpencerSeverino You are soooo right! I would not be surprised to learn The Onion is looking to recruit the good senator.

[John T Jezuit @SeoulDad]

@SpencerSeverino The question is why? To show his base he's fightin' for 'em? Or direct the news cycle away from something else? Or face saving because he know's it would never pass?

@MikeBeverly4 @SFY @dahntay1 My mind says you're right. My heart says Whitlock is right.

My @msnbc colleague @AriMelber makes a brilliant point about the obvious (and therefore easy to miss) flaw in @realDonaldTrump’s “national emergency” threat: it’s not an “emergency” if you claim that you can declare it at your leisure!

[Mike Greenberg @Espngreeny]

That is a bitter, bitter defeat. #Bears

[Michael Wilbon @RealMikeWilbon]

Huge error for the Bears to call the timeout when they did...should have spiked the ball and saved the timeout to perhaps advance the ball to the middle of the field to call TO and get Parkey closer...

I hope it's not as long as The Goat.

Usually, it's "you can't fire me. I quit." This one is more like "you can't quit. I fire you."

@amyewalter @ForecasterEnten When you write Hillary 2.0, do you mean a policy oriented candidate or a low on the charisma scale candidate? Or both?

The only thing sweeter than eliminating the Cardinals from the baseball postseason (2015 Cubs) is winning a game that takes the division title AND at the same time eliminates the Packers from playoff contention. Merry Christmas Cheeseheads!

[Michael Wilbon @RealMikeWilbon]

As terrific as Nagy has been in his rookie season his judgement in hugely important situations, from GB to Miami to The Meadowlands to today on that fake punt has been seriously flawed and costly.

[Michael Wilbon @RealMikeWilbon]

Battling back to reach OT only to have the QB fumble 3 times in a series still amounts to a giveaway...especially to a sad sack team like the Giants.

[Michael Wilbon @RealMikeWilbon]

Certainly seen enough of Chase Daniel for this season...

[Michael Wilbon @RealMikeWilbon]

Seems a little too similar to the game down in Miami the Bears gave away. Dont need to show how smart you are to beat these Giants. Nagy and Daniel gave NYG all 10 of their first half points.

[Michael Wilbon @RealMikeWilbon]

Not the way for the Bears to go into big games with the Rams and Packers, letting the Giants make them look like suckers...

I've got @TigerWoods to beat @PhilMickelson in #CapitalOnesTheMatch #TeamTiger

[Michael Wilbon @RealMikeWilbon]

The NFL tries its damndest to legislate defense out...and these Bears defenders keep giving the legislators a wonderful middle finger...this is football The Chicago Way...

@NateSilver538 Portland PDX is the best.
