When were they supposed to criticize her before the fact? lol
The idea that someone is bad because they didn’t do enough when it’s well documented the incompetence, obstruction and evil they were up against helps no one.

the idea that someone should’ve done more earlier is playing the results too

If you are up against incompetence you shouldn't you be able to manipulate the situation better in your favor? She has the ability to obstruct and doesn't do it enough in the face of opponents who are evil. Look how McConnell and Boehner obstructed Obama during his tenure, have the House Dems done anything close?

Congressional approval is pretty low...Pelosi did what had to be done

Make sure and vote in November so that the Dems can control the House and the Senate and things that you want will actually get done

Will they tho? People want single-payer, are you confident in the scenario outlined we would get it?

Single Payer Healthcare is not getting done with any sort of GOP led House, Senate, or White House

That shyt is only getting done with a Democratic "Full House" scenario in the Fall
I'm not so sure, is what I'm saying. Remember last time there were blue dog Dems in the Senate who blocked it. Very well could happen again.

I really get the feeling that Pelosi just wants to eat her Jeni's ice cream in peace and watch Insecure re-runs like the rest of us. At 80, she's should just enjoy life in cape cod or something and let the young progressive sect keep it pushing.

I feel like the current political climate would make a Joe Lieberman move a very dangerous one

The polls say the people want a public option

True, that could happen. Does it mean we're better off staying home and letting the GOP win to teach the Dems a lesson for something they may or may not do? :jbhmm:

Uh no and no one advocated for that. I believe you should vote every election, I wouldn't even be mad if it we implemented compulsory voting like Australia.
