Nancy Pelosi’s Democratic Foes Think They Have The Votes To Block Her

I think it is alot of what she hasn't done
She seems very ineffective and politically compromised
I think she will work WITH the Republicans AGAINST the Democrats
because it will benefit HER and not because it is the right or wrong

She seems to be spineless

She got the ACA through when it was detrimental to the Democrats control of Congress.

how quickly people forget.

Who do you want to be speaker?

 

I have no one in particular
I think the version of ACA she got through could have been stronger if she were stronger
The Republicans RAMROD legislation through with smaller majorities

I don't have anything against her or for her. I think a lot of people dislike her for the same reasons they dislike Hilary - she's not the most appealing white woman to look at. I say that because I don't actually see much criticism about her other than she compromised with Trump - which is basically her job as speaker. Shouldn't we celebrate someone who doesn't take a hardline stance and is practical?

 

Well . . .when the compromise is . . .. He won't kill ya. . . just chop take your kids away and torture you for a few years
Somethings you cannot compromise on . . others you shouldn't
and the compromises seems to come for her benefit and not that of the party or the country

Pelosi says she has 'overwhelming Democrat support' and that she 'is the best person for the job'.

 

^^ Pretty much this.

Maybe the House Majority needs someone new in the leadership role, given how Pelosi has somehow become for the Republican Party the boogeyman of all things liberal and unholy (ads around the country leading up to Election Day: "....and Nancy Pelosi with her evil agenda, slipping money under the table for [fill in Dem name here], so that we can allow terrorists to slip over the border posing as Mexican busboys, she'll take your guns, give you socialized medicine, raise your taxes, make your straight son turn gay, BU-WA-HA-HA-HA....!")

 

Yes, if one were cynical, one could could imagine a bargain of sorts being struck.

 

Why is this your go to reaction?

 

Is this racist, sexist, or ageist? I am having trouble deciding which.

 

Not sure if it matters. Dems will alienate people with whoever they pick. This split in the party has been waiting to create problems and here it is.

 

Huge mistake by Dems as usual. She's part of the old guard, terrible in front of the camera, barely coherent, etc... the worst dem they could pick for majority "speaker." Trump was her biggest support for speaker that's all you need to know.

 

the ****** also said that it was gonna be a Red wave

it was very smart / pragmatic to select Pelosi, whose adroit political skills, without which, ObamaCare would not have passsed in a Republican-controlled house

 

Yes an incoherent almost 79 year old whose pumped full of free drugs is the house leader the people need.

 

that captures the essence of arbitrary criticism, spinned by the sore losers (GOP) of the indefatigable Pelosi, who has just spearheaded
the blue wave, the largest margin of victory for Dems since Watergate.

she is in tune w the electorate, advising Dems to run on healthcare,
which was the winning message to generate the blue wave​

instead of parroting convenient talking points, it would behoove you to come up w valid criticism.

There are special laws for drivers her age for godsakes. Why wouldn't there be the same for creating policy and laws?!?!

 

an incoherent outburst by a sore loser.
