He and his father are dirt bags.

Dems are in trouble if they allow thuglicans to CONTINUE framing their narratives. You don't see thuglicans worrying about how bad Mitch McConnell looks to Dems do you? And McConnell is a racist, rotten POS.

...to dump on our Democratic leader.

This is a right-wing inspired and sponsored push, y'all.

and it was hovering around 35%, and since the numbers are around that now, it must mean that you CAN win the election with a 35% approval rate.
Screw him!
That only proves that Russia jiggered with the election. Not that trump won fair and square.

...but that seems to me a totally specious argument. Fact is, whoever Democrats might choose to replace her will soon become just as vilified, thanks to Republican propaganda machines like Faux.

I mean, they managed to do the same thing to Harry Reid -- a "pro-life" moderate Mormon. Even if congressional Democrats were able to get a member of the Tea Party Republicans to jump parties and take over, without changing a single one of his policies, he'd soon be painted as "dangerously liberal."

Nancy for majority leader.

This is why MSNBS, CNN, fox, and CNBS no longer come into my house, because they don't care about the fact that the DEMOCRATS in the House voted for Nancy to lead them, they only care about the views of those that hate her.

He has said so many things I disagree with, but he's supposed to be an 'expert' and a dem.

Nope.
