...to play that game, they all should have a prepared response along the lines of: "We have not yet taken back the House. We will cross that bridge when we come to it, when every member of the House votes in the issue." End of statement, no further comment.

Anyone who engages in this discussion is falling into into a RW trap. As Michelle Obama used to say, "Don't be fooled."

candidates or not. What they should be saying is that they'll support a specific challenger's nomination, and in lieu of that they should probably keep their powder dry and not put themselves in a pickle for later when a candidate to the right of Pelosi ends up being the main contender. There's a lot of room in the Democratic party on that side of her. Then what will they do?

message going after the republicans and the trump administration.

There is plenty of time after the primaries to decide who will or won't be the Democratic majority and minority leader, and at that time that is when the Democrats should be debating each other

We are being played by the media, republicans, and other forces, and some are predictablly falling into their trap

by the Repubs who use Pelosi as a boogeyman to drum up support. It's the same story each election. Sad to see that more Dems are falling for it.
As the article rightly points out, age doesn't seem to be the issue for other politicians to get the support of progressives.

Stop taking the bait! Stay focused on 2018 FFS!

behind their name. We wabt to win the House. All the noise will be dealt when it comes time to deal with it. Nancy Pelosi said say whatever you to say to win.

F**KING MIDTERMS to debate who will be the Democratic lead

The only thing bullshit like this accomplishes, is dividing the Democrats, before the primaries, when THAT IS THE LAST THING WE NEED

All the Democrats have to do before the midterms is STAY ON MESSAGE, and go after trump and the republicans, but no let's try to bring up UNECESSARY divisionary issue among Democrats just to see if we can divide party the party before the midterms.

We don't need the f**king Russians, republicans, etc. we have ourselves to do it.


For once, can we just wait until AFTER the midterms and focus on the republicans and the trump administration, and then after the midterms then decide majority/minority leader.


These circular firing squads are wonderful.

Forget the polls, we have an uphill battle just based on the number of seats that Democrats have to defend verses the number of seats the republicans have to defend.

It is time to stop the debating among ourselves until after the midters.


ENOUGH ALREADY
