    Pelosi’s been leader since 2003 and has presided over three lost elections, while her party this year is running on change. It’s a fairly unique situation and many candidates want to get past it by dumping Pelosi.

    Replying to @alivitali @daveweigel @JRBoh
    Please poll all Republican candidates as to whether they support McCarthy for speaker. You do this every two years with Pelosi, who is effective, but never with Ryan, McCarthy, Hastert etc.,

    Or an upside, because they stick out like a sore thumb/are more easily exposed.

    One downside to the "lifetime tenure for columnists"/Fail Upward system we seem to use for opinion writers is that when you hit a period of realignment/ideological flux/political upheaval the most important, widely-read people are also the most out of touch

    Bah gawd is that 's music?!

    .'s latest piece includes polling on the bold policy ideas from our Opportunity Agenda. It shows that Dem voters favor these modern ideas, but we’d say Stacey Abrams (also referenced in the piece) has made them central to her pitch to GA voters.

    Tlaib spoke at a fundraiser held by people from her father's Palestinian neighborhood -- Beit Hanina -- in a Sacramento, California, suburb. This is the hilarious video that one of the community members made to plug the fundraiser:

    How'd she raise nearly $1.3 million when her closest opponent, Bill Wild, pulled in less than $600,000? She received money from Muslim and Arab Americans across the country.

    Her campaign's internal polling showed that voters most associated Tlaib with the words "fight" or "fighter." And people recognized her from the ads in the street.

    Here is an example of an ad Tlaib ran emphasizing that she would "fight" for her constituents: “I’m the eldest of 14, and I’ve been fighting for working families my entire life."

    How specifically did the fundraising $$ help Tlaib? Her campaign canvassed 50,000 households that voted in the Democratic primary in 2016. Nearly 90,000 people showed up in the polls. Tlaib's campaign believed it got the message out to the entire electorate thanks to ads.

    This may sound intuitive but in the most famous case -- AOC -- the opposite was true. I note how money advantages or near parity helped Dana Balter, Ben Jealous and Stacey Abrams.
