She's in charge. How she chooses to exercise that authority is her business. The point is accomplishment. She's been in senior leadership for nearly 20 years and we are in the worst shape since reconstruction. Does she bear NO responsibility for this?
Reid is gone. Gephart lost the majority and was gone. O'Neill regularly was "challenged" (by fools, he was very powerful).
I'm not actually one that is particularly hard over about this. As you suggest, it's really about her peers. I just continue to point out that we are in the worst shape we've been in since reconstruction, we've been out of the congressional majority in the House since 2012. The DNC was basically broke going into the last presidential election.
But somehow our leadership isn't to be held accountable AT ALL.
