‘The New Washington’: Though Out of Power, Democrats Are Winning the Fight, Pelosi Says
On Washington
By CARL HULSE SEPT. 30, 2017
WASHINGTON — Representative Nancy Pelosi might have retired from Congress had Hillary Clinton been elected, content that she was leaving the government in capable female hands.
“One of the reasons I stayed here is because I thought Hillary Clinton would win, we’d have a woman president and so there would be a woman not at a seat at the table, but at the head of the table for the world,” said Ms. Pelosi, the liberal Californian and longtime leader of House Democrats.
“We wanted to have a woman president,” she said in an interview for the New York Times podcast “The New Washington.” “But when we didn’t, then I couldn’t walk away and say, O.K., just let all the men have the seats at the table that are making decisions for our country.”
As Republicans last week came up short yet again in their push to repeal the Affordable Care Act — a health care law that she was instrumental in writing and enacting as speaker of the House — Ms. Pelosi feels she is taking good advantage of the place she retained at the negotiating table. By virtue of Democratic unity and Republican disarray, she said, Democrats have been able to shape spending bills to their liking (no border wall, for instance) and hold off Republicans on their attempts to unravel the health care law.
“That’s another reason I stayed — to protect the Affordable Care Act,” Ms. Pelosi said.

Losing is the new winning, I guess (smh).
Bagdad Nan is still believed by the loyal! Keep talking Nan
She’s right. McCain, Collins, Murkowski, etc. are on the winning team...
indeed, Pee-lousy has, like the proverbial broken clock, finally stumbled on a correct statement...
the D commie leftists (SorozNazi front political hacks and their fellow travelers) are indeed winning most of what counts right now
1. DJT has not Drained the Damned Swamp!
2. Obamacare remains
3. there’s yet been no serious tax cutting just talk and that’s not at all clear what will result
4. IslamoNazis both remain in USA ....AND continue to invade us
so far, the D’s are winning the important things
Lies are all they have left to put into their fundraising letters. They need stupid stuff to tell stupid people so they will write checks.
That’s right. The RATs are winning.....because of help from the RINOs. Just think where we’d be without duplicitous scumbags like McConnell, McQueeg, Murcowski, Collins, Ryan, Flake, etc., etc., etc.
Sounds sexist to me. Isn’t that supposed to be bad?
As bad as I hate it, you're right.
Also, it looks like they're going to get amnesty, at least for the DACA crowd, and there will be a push to get amnesty for the rest as well. BTW, I don't believe the 11-12 million number that's been tossed around for decades. I'd guess 30 million is more accurate.
yes, the D’s are winning all the big stuff.
and yes, it looks like there will be another big amnesty for millions more illegals, as you say
and there are probably over 11 million of them in Californication alone, so 30 million nationally is probably a pretty good estimate
We need to repatriate, return all the Islamics first. that’s a large number (Obama’s invasion forces...they’re all very very very very very very very dangerous to us),
Then, the Mexican 13 gang members (this is a much smaller number, but they are still dangerous).
then we can deal with the remainder
Win by losing? Yer a frikken genius, Nan.
I hope they keep on “winning”!!!!
”Pelosi’s doc stuck the Botox needle in too deep and too often! He’s frozen Pelosi’s face and brain.”
My wife was the head RN in a busy FP practice for 3 + decades. Many of their elite female patients were addicted to Plastic Surgery and Botox injections. She labeled it the Barbara Boxer look and mental syndrome. She says Pelosi appears to have the same mental syndrome of too much Botox and Plastic Surgery.
If the patients had another face lift, their pubic hair would become a goatee. Between the Botox and plastic surgery their face was as tight as a new snare drum. Their eyes had a frozen look. Their mental capabilities decreased with each Botox injection. Boxer's aides watched her like a hawk because she had no filters left when she talked. Pelosi is showing the same negative oral utterings.
Pelosi's comments re President Bush instead of President Trump, indicate that she has reached the Barbara Boxer syndrome due to Botox and Plastic Surgery abuse.
Thanks to VVayne for this medical picture of patient abuse of Botox and Plastic Surgery!
Well, pardon us if we are not running away.
If you look a this data and think The Democrat is winning anywhere other than deep blue whackadoo states you are insane.
TX and AZ movement thanks to immigration is worrisome longer term but that’s a long long way away before it shifts the map.
A botoxicated whore! ...
