I love it, since the leadership isn’t black, and the “sexism” charge isn’t sticking, they went back a couple of generations for “ethnic”.
Since almost all the leadership on the cloasts is going to be Irish, Jewish or Italian (gee, do Dick Durbin and Michael Madigan feel left out in Illinois?)
With Pelosi in particular, I believe you can have fun if you look at her “ethnic” connections in her family with “Benny Trotta” Magliano of the Baltimore Mob.
Again, using Matthews’ own words,
Democrats attacked Ronald Reagan, who was from the coasts with people who are “usually ethnic”, is also a long tradition of Democrat ‘ethnic politics’.
