She's one of the shrewdest politicians around. If anything, Republicans should be the ones worried.

now they are re-conjured to cast doubt on the Democratic leadership in Congress?

Thank you for your concern.

You are abusing the TOS to suggest otherwise.

And why do you keep attacking leading figures in the DEMOCRATIC Party?

Do you think that when you attack DEMOCRATS on a forum for DEMOCRATS that you won't get push-back from DEMOCRATS?

Stop taking the low road.

Civility
No personal attacks or flaming
Do not personally attack, insult, flame, threaten, bully, harass, stalk, negatively call-out, ascribe ugly ulterior motives to, or make baseless claims about any member of this community. Do not post in a manner that is hostile, abusive, or aggressive toward any member of this community.
Why we have this rule: Civility begets quality discussions. Democratic Underground members are highly passionate about politics which means discussions can get heated -- but they don't need to get nasty. There's no reason why a community of intelligent adults who agree on a majority of political issues can't have a conversation without insulting each other or resorting to other anti-social behaviors.

Don't bash Democratic public figures
Do not post disrespectful nicknames, insults, or highly inflammatory attacks against any Democratic public figures. Do not post anything that could be construed as bashing, trashing, undermining, or depressing turnout for any Democratic general election candidate, and do not compare any Democratic general election candidate unfavorably to their general election opponent(s).
Why we have this rule: Our forum members support and admire a wide variety of Democratic politicians and public figures. Constructive criticism is always welcome, but our members don't expect to see Democrats viciously denigrated on this website. This rule also applies to Independents who align themselves with Democrats (eg: Bernie Sanders).

Although it wouldn't hurt to remind them that when you sup with the devil you should use a long spoon.

Do you know what that is?

Sorry to disappoint you, but Pelosi is not going to vote for tax cuts for the rich. That's Tim Ryan, held up as the "progressive" candidate to replace Pelosi.
