Pelosi confronts Dem backlash from the young and the restless (overdone Nanzi?)
Fox News ^ | 6/23/17

Posted on 06/24/2017 4:52:24 PM PDT by Libloather

Nancy Pelosi’s problem inside the Democratic caucus isn’t going away – as a new generation of lawmakers starts to openly question her leadership in the wake of consecutive special election losses.

The long-reigning House Democratic leader remained defiant at a press conference Thursday, saying she thrives on “competition” and touting her skills as a “master legislator” and “politically astute leader.”

But inside the rank-and-file, members are getting restless and the call for Pelosi to depart is louder than ever.

If you aren't for her, you may be a misogynist. Against her, sexist. For her, ancient carcass.

Oh, my...

Well, not so much the "Master legislator" but maybe the "Master debater" ... or just the "Master-bater" for short ...

“”touting her skills as a “master legislator” and “politically astute leader.””

No one who isn’t fruitier than a fruit cake could say those words with a straight face. No wonder what makes sense to the rest of us never makes sense to a democrat. They’re not playing with the same brain cells we are...

The funny thing is when the youngsters kick her out they will fight amongst themselves over leadership and issues. It won’t be a pretty fight.

I can’t stand the woman, but it seems to me that she is nothing more than a convenient scapegoat. What does she stand for that they disagree with? What has she done that they don’t like? The only problem right now is that her party is losing. If it were winning, the rats would have no problem with her.

I thrive on “donuts” and touting my skills as a “monster hunter”.

Can I take her job?

They had geographic, ethnic and political diversity there

Unfortunately, that's bad news for Majority Leader Pelosi because all she has is white privilege.

She is a lush (like Hillary), a phony (like Schumer), a liar (like Warren), and an angry old liberal woman (like ALL of those previously mentioned). In short, a perfect fit!

Within the Congressional Democrat Caucus, I suspect Dems from safe districts rubber stamp Pelosi. It is the Democrats from swing districts that need Pelosi replaced. But they need the money and district favors that a connected boss like Pelosi can provide.

If Pelosi cuts off their money, where will they find replacement money? It is the Dems in swing districts that need the money. Dems in safe districts don’t need the money.

Now, can the GOP divide and conquer?

Until they can find someone that can fund raise from the liberal elite in the amounts she does, they're stuck.

As long as she supports abortion, she is 100% aligned with the Rat party platform.

What has she done that they don’t like? The only problem right now is that her party is losing.

They still don't see that it is their policies not who is advocating them. They can't see the disaster that O was. It's the way socialists think.

It's not the socialism that isn't working. It's that it wasn't done right.

Remember the definition of insanity; doing the same thing and expecting a different result. This is a perfect example.
