So, tell me, who finally won in Alabama? I didn't keep up with politics too much in the last few weeks. You guys had quite a scare, didn't you?

"Pelosi, however, has demonstrated a penchant for petty squabbling. Earlier this year, her PAC donated $10,000 to Rep. Lynn Rivers of Michigan, who was forced by redistricting into a tough primary against fellow Democrat John Dingell [who is Black]. Leadership figures traditionally don't take sides during these match-ups, but Pelosi nonetheless saw fit to boost a fellow feminist (who lost). Pelosi may have sincerely (but wrongly) felt that Rivers was more essential to House Democrats. Her electioneering, however, came with a price tag: Dingell cut back his fundraising activities for colleagues."

I'm sensing a trend here (regarding Pelosi versus the Black Caucus)...

re: mortgaging teacher's union HQ to give to candidates)))

Amazing. I'd like to know its non-profit status. Most orgs like these are not permitted to endorse candidates.
