    For fucks sake Nancy, retire and make room for new blood.

    You’re an albatross around the party’s neck and actively fight against the party platform on things like stock regulations or holding the wealthy accountable in anyway.

    Dems would be better off if everyone over 70 in the party got the fuck out of the way instead of desperately clinging to offic for personal power.

      They’ll keep rolling her out for campaigns like do with Bill Clinton. They view reaching high station in the party as being perpetually loved by the rank and file.

        The one good thing the Republican party did was to stop pretending Bush II was popular. They ran away from this guy as soon as Obama was elected and pretended they never met the guy, so they could be a completely new party that couldn’t be held accountable for past ‘mistakes’ (even though their policies never actually changed).

        The Democrats on the other hand are still rolling out Clinton on the regular, even though he’s responsible for a lot of issues we’re seeing now, and was good friends with Epstein and Trump.

      I was listening to CNN on the commute home tonight and one of the pundits said “The Democratic party needs to shake things up with some younger leadership… There’s a lot of great people in their 50s and 60s in the party that could step up!”

      Clown party. They are not serious. Ugh.

        50s and 60s are OK ages for politicians. That age brings wisdom and experience. OTOH, they can’t hang in long. Maybe 40s is a solid age range to start? (In the power roles, not lower down.)

      The lady must have dirt tattooed on her body at this point. She’s around because she’s a backroom weapon.
