1 big thing: Pelosi in peril

" I have often believed that Nancy Pelosi is the only real man in Washington. "
The hell?

out of sync comment.

Why should we do what the GOP wants?

If she refuses to, then I would support Schiff for Speaker when we win back the House.

1. Does Schiff want to be Speaker?
2. Does Schiff support Pelosi for Speaker

And you don’t have any say over who the Speaker is. That’s solely up to the Members. So, who you - or I or anyone else - supports doesn’t really matter.

1. He's coy about it. He says (publicly, at least) that if Pelosi wants it, he will support her. But he seems to leave the impression that if she steps down from leadership, he'd like a shot at it.

2. Yes.

And we don't have a direct say over who the Speaker is. But we do have a direct say over the members that vote for the Speaker... every 2 years. So these members that vote for the Speaker have a lot less insulation and/or protection from voters than Senators do.

Tom Foley made that mistake when he didn't realize how important the issue of term limits was to his constituents.

or should be archaic at this point, since there is nothing aside from a mix of both carefully and lazily constructed mythology over the centuries that has established this idea that being a man is being strong and being a woman is being weak.

I get that it is still an effective insult, especially if you are talking to a bunch of people with that misogynistic view of the world, who will be most shamed or offended by being called less of a man, so I may be kind of torn...but the language still perpetuates the toxic mythology.

As to Pelosi, she's good at fundraising. Her rhetoric is okay. I like her. Her record as speaker...well I have no idea how you judge that - being effective at fundraising cannot mean in this day and age that the sources of that fundraising don't affect what policies actually get fought for or caved on...not that it even has to buy votes...it could simply be a case of propelling candidates with ideologies that naturally align to these interests to the top of the heap. Being successful in pulling in the big bucks then, is not necessarily the badge of honor people always want it to be. Granted, not being successful in this area would mean we would have seen another speaker some time ago, so in the sense that it does fund elections, and it does keep her in her title, that is a measure of success I guess.

Yes.

Buyer beware of the memes being sold to us.
