    Rep. Jim Himes tells @PoppyHarlowCNN that Democrats "need some people who can speak to people in their 40s, to people in their 20s." Asked about Pelosi, he says: "The fact that our top three leaders are in their late 70s - I don't care who the leaders are - that's a problem."

        i wonder what the comms shops for democrats actually do. the easiest answer on pelosi is "shes been an amazing force inside the democratic party for years. lets win back the house then worry about who will be speaker. lets focus our energy now on the issues that matter to people"

        Because Trump & McConnell are such spry septuagenarians... that said, he has a point.

        Ageist. Smart societies appreciate the wisdom and perspective of their elders. I hate Mitch McConnell with passion, but I have no complaint about his age. My concerns are about his morals. That being said, I would prefer a speaker who was pragmatic not partisan.

        That’s not ageist that’s fact. She’s very smart, capable and strong. But she doesn’t speak to or for me. My issues are not hers. The dem leadership needs to expand.

        That is likely true of Paul Ryan as well. It has zero to do with his age. I would prefer a Speaker who encouraged bipartisan cooperation, and put forward bills that could pass with bipartisan support without needing enough support in their own caucus as well.

        Why is that a problem? An elder has the ability to know what it's like to be 20, or 40. You don't have to put them on a pedestal, but at least judge them individually. Don't discriminate based on age. If anything, having life experience is a plus.

        Wow,! Y'all going to be stupid enough to let the Republicans pick your leader? The questions started with the Republican TALKING POINTS. Then the lapdog press asks that question ay all times. Disgusting.

        Why can't people in their 20's, 30's, and 40's listen to people in their 70's. Why can't we judge our representatives by their character and abilities? This is a new type of discrimination and it shouldn't be given time of day.

        Ummm...a position like Pelosi's needs many years of experience in the details of procedures to be truly effective. Or else you get someone like @SpeakerRyan, who just stands by idly while things happen around him/her.
