    Not clear to me who is more excited by prospect of ousting Pelosi as Democratic leader: Younger Democrats who believe she’s the one stopping their ascent or Republicans who often say privately that she’s the most effective leader they’ve seen on Capitol Hill.

        I think Dems need to take the MSD students' approach to the NRA and apply it to Republicans' propaganda against Pelosi. Its the same damm game. Dems shouldn't fall for it.

        I've posted this elsewhere: She's the best American parliamentarian since LBJ, but she's less effective as spokesperson for the party.

        Truthfully that’s not her job. She can get a Bill passed and keeps the Dems inline and on track. No one does it better.

        I won't keep at this because it's such a small difference it isn't worth chewing over, but I'd say winning public support when you're the highest-ranking party member is actually a pretty important part of the job.

        Well, when people are so quick to jump on the "demonize a woman" train, what do you want her to do? Kamala is already going through the same thing re running for pres. "Just not THAT woman....". It never ends.

        I'm not demonizing her. I know her, admire her, and think she's been an extraordinarily effective Speaker and Majority Leader. And said so in my tweet. She's great with the caucus, less so as a saleswoman for her (our) side...

        It's got nothing to do with gender, and certainly nothing to do with Kamala Harris, whom I also admire enormously. There's no need to attribute attitudes to me that I don't harbor.

        Michael Steele said on Chris Matthews a few months ago that when he was RNC chair, HE was the one that came up with the strategy to turn Pelosi into a demon because she was very effective and an easy boogeyman. If you fell for it,you're a tool. They want her out cause she's good.

        Far left liberal here and .@NancyPelosi has my full support. Furthermore I will not look kindly on any member who tries to oust her. Nancy is demonized bc she's effective. I'm not buying into this shit.
