An establishment loudmouth politician supporting a highly unfavorable, distrusted politician?

Gee I never saw this coming.

The first female Speaker of the House? Democratic stalwart Nancy Pelosi? "An establishment loudmouth politician"?

This is still Democratic Underground, right? A site where we support Democrats?

And, of course, huge Democrats admirer.

And, yes, of course, this fine and very important endorsement is out early this morning to assist Hillary. Wonder if she decided to do it now to help offset any depressive effect on turnout by the AP 's "calling" the presumptive nominee last night...?

So I'm not a big fan of Pelosi. So what? That doesn't make me a bad democrat.

Perhaps you should focus on the "supporting a highly unfavorable, distrusted politician?" part.

and the rest of the party who stands between us and segregated bathrooms, lunch counters, workplaces, and who support raising the minimum wage, protecting SS, Medicare, Medicaid, working toward universal healthcare, reforming the criminal justice system, equal pay for equal work, LBGT rights, religious freedom, and taxing the wealthy to pay their fair share. And we love our "loudmouths" and wish they were even louder!

But you fall way short for me and millions of other hard working democrats. The oligarchy has spoken and we shall obey.
