One thing REALLY bothers me about Lamb's campaign:
His disavowal of Nancy Pelosi, presumably to ward off attacks on him trying to pin her to him.
First, IMO she's not that liberal. But she was one of THE MOST EFFECTIVE Speakers of the House ever.
Second, and more important, the GOP will vilify and demonize ANYONE who's the Dem Leader of the House -- and all the easier to do when she's a woman (so yes, it's also sexist).
Third, and a little less important but still an issue, leadership IMO on Lamb's part would have involved standing up to that line of attack. What / who will he next feel required to disavow because of Republicon attacks, which they now know he's vulnerable to?
IMPORTANT NOTE: This post is NOT an argument pro or con Pelosi. It's NOT an argument pro or con Lamb and his centrist views. It's about ONE single issue about how he waged/handled his campaign. I think we have to be smarter than that, frankly.

So you think she was one of THE MOST EFFECTIVE Speakers ever? As a fictional spirit-guide I'd suggest you not say stuff like that in public. If you absolutely feel that you MUST say something stupid say something along the lines of "I'm the 13th planet in our solar system". Something like that will make you sound just a tad more sane than speaking your thoughts about Pelosi.
One thing that bothers me about Pelosi is that I've never been able to figure out if her perpetually surprised look is from too much plastic surgery or walking around with an icicle shoved up her ass.

The fact is, Lamb ran as a Republican with a (d). He was a true DINO. Had he run on the current democrat agenda he would have gotten killed.

Conor Lamb is also what DU-folk would call a Gun-Humper.

Lamb reminds me of Manchin.
Say whatever you need to stay out of trouble.
Kiss Schumer's ass whenever Chucky needs his vote...
How long will it take before Lamb is kissing Pelosi's ass?
I'll give him 15 minutes...

What did Nancy accomplish in her time as Speaker of the House? Other than Obama Care I can't think of a single important piece of legislation that was passed.

As the leader of the quorum responsible for initiating all federal spending bills, it's highly ironic that there isn't a single budget bill - balanced or otherwise - ramrodded through under her steely oversight.

Careful setting that as the standard. There hasn't been one since then either.

She's lined the hell out of her pockets.

Fixed it :lmao:

There hasn't been a discernable difference between her, John Boehner and Paul Ryan in any other aspect of their leadership, either.

We HAD to pass it to find out what was in it...

Lamb had to run as as a closet DINO. That should bother DU-grade Progs.
