Nice to see @MarshaEBarrett and @pastpunditry on @CBSMornings today.

Join us Friday, Nov. 22, for "Telling the Truth" conversations with @chucktodd, @RepPaulTonko, @CharlotteAlter, @TimOBrien, @MarshaEBarrett, and John Faso. nyswritersinstitute.org/telling-the-tr…

Thank you, @jonfasman!

This week I reviewed outstanding new biographies from @MarshaEBarrett and @MaxBoot that together trace the Republican party's post-Goldwater rightward march: economist.com/culture/2024/0…

@henrymjtonks @PublicSeminar I would love to see that happen! I just read a great book about Clifford Case by William R. Fernekes. There is so much more work to be done.

@MarshaEBarrett @PublicSeminar My original interest in US political history was in moderate Republicans, so it was great to go deep into these weeds! The book’s research is so rich. Hopefully your work and the recent Lodge bio will start a historiographic boomlet.

What ever happened to the Party of Lincoln? | Read me in @PublicSeminar on what @MarshaEBarrett’s rich, fascinating new book “Nelson Rockefeller’s Dilemma” tells us about the fall of moderate Republicanism. #GOP #USHistory #USPolitics publicseminar.org/2024/09/nelson…

podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the… I'm still thinking about my fantastic conversation with @chucktodd about my book Nelson Rockefeller's Dilemma! It's been a dream of mine to share my work with people that feel a personal connection to Rockefeller Republicanism. Thank you!

So… this is like the opposite of 1968

youtube.com/watch?v=lImIN8… I discussed my book Nelson Rockefeller's Dilemma with Sam Roberts on his show NYT CloseUp. It was a real treat to discuss Rockefeller with a journalist who reported extensively on the former NY Governor and Vice President.

It isn't the popular convention for discussion at the moment (1968 DNC), but I wrote an article that highlights Nelson Rockefeller and moderate Republicans at the 1964 RNC. 60 years ago this week. time.com/6995385/rnc-hi…
