Pelosi keeps getting elected leader because she brings in the most money. Maybe the dems will start to realize that money isn’t enough.
The same line of thinking applies to the Clintons as well. Bubba and HRC raise a lot of money, but HRC’s isn’t winning the big prize for the Dems.
“The chief value of money lies in the fact that one lives in a world in which it is overestimated.” - H.L. Mencken
Maybe it is enough for her purpose.
Maybe political parties are like sports team owners who realize that they can do better financially by not winning a championship. If they won, they'd have to pay the players more or lose them to other teams.
In other words, the party that wins has to find a way to keep all the promises it made. If they don't win, the money will roll in and the leaders can have a good life and answer to nobody.
Doubtful, they haven't learned that lesson when it comes to public schools over the past 30 years.
