74. Nancy should stay

Apr 2018

Right now, especially when so much is at stake with our Democracy, we need her experience to prevent being taken to the cleaners from lack of knowledge, and that others simply don't have at this time. She also needs to be more progressive, and have plans when the House flips in place what to get done ASAP. She needs to make them pay for what they've done to this country and its people.

All due respect, admiration, and appreciation to her nt Laura PourMeADrink Apr 2018 #1
