Why do any otherwise intelligent people think that Nancy Pelosi

[pnwmom]

41. She is a leader in the most partisan era EVER of Congress. She is NOT a head coach.

The analogy fails on every level.

This is not like LBJ's era, when both the major parties included conservatives, moderates, and liberals -- and House leaders could put together coalitions of like minded people from both parties. Unfortunately, many people here worked hard to bring this about, by complaining about DINO's from red states and doing everything they could to drive them off.

I love it how people here want to have it both ways.

People complain that she doesn't wheel and deal enough, working across party lines to get important things accomplished.

The same people complain whenever she works across party lines that she's compromised our principles, that she's a sell-out, etc.

Well, you can take both positions if you want. Why not? Who cares about logic in these post-truth days?
