Hotline Debuts “Word on the Tweet”

Hotline’s “Word on the Tweet” debuted last night. The feature is a daily review of the political world on Twitter. Hotline’s Evan McMorris-Santoro will collect the best tweets of the moment written by political leaders, ex-politicians and candidates for office nationwide.

Here are a few of the selected tweets from last night’s address:

Rep. Steve Israel (D-NY): “Sitting in my seat on House Floor. Had to arm wrestle for it. Colleagues get very possesive about where they sit. Bruises and welts.” – 2/24, 8:24 PM

Rep. Earl Blumenauer (D-OR): “Location! Presiding today I delivered message no more reserving seat by taping your name. Have to be there. And they are, early.” – 2/24, 8:28 PM

Rep. Cathy McMorris (R-WA): “On the House floor for Pres Obama’s historic speech to Congress. I have the honor of escorting him. If you’re watching, I’m wearing white.” – 2/24, 8:30 PM
