Elizabeth Warren, Kristen Gillenbrand, Al Franklin.

Message like this:

* If you make under $150,000 a year and vote Republican, you're a chump!

* Work harder; a billionaire needs another tax cut.

I know it's trite, but dam it; we need to be real and ruthless!

It seems like any attempt here to discuss - factually - whether the Dems can actually take back the House with Pelosi as the leader is automatically labeled as misogyny and selling out to the conservatives.

but there isn't one. There was book written more that was written in 2005..."What's the matter with Kansas?" You have to go after the voters where you have a shot. We stick to our principals and do not allow the damn Republicans to drive effective leaders out of our party...we are Democrats...we have a big tent...but we do have core principals and GOP light won't work.

fact that the alt-left only can act as spoilers when because they are a minority in a center left country...look at Virginia...all those new voters...didn't happen for Perriello. And I will not risk the election in 18 because someone feels they need new leaders...screw them. On a day when the handicapped were cuffed and hauled out of the capitol...I don't really give a damn about people who complain about the Democratic Party.

It's all over the news, a narrative that attempts to undermine one of our strongest leaders, led by blue dog Democrats.

Favorable 28.6%
Unfavorable 48.7%
Undecided 22.4%

If Pelosi was strong with Dem, ratings should be balanced, yes?

I voted for her every two yers when I lived in S.F. '89-'99.

She's a great lawmaker, but not crowd-pleaser as Speaker.
