Is she really less conservative than the Tim Ryans and Seth Moultons of the world? GovTrack gives him a 0.36 and her a 0.37, indicating they hold essentially the same views with respect to their actual voting record at least. Moulton is a 0.37 himself

When you go down the list on an issue by issue basis it seems pretty mixed. Pelosi continues to punt on the idea of marijuana legalization, for instance, while Moulton is an open supporter. Pelosi takes the old school institutional track, essentially saying its a states issue but that the feds should respect state decisions.

I'm late to the topic but my gatherings from the aether are she is an establishment Dem, and thus tainted in the same way Hillary is. ie she's been around too long and hasn't single handily pass a progressive agenda, and isn't ideologically pure enough. Basically it feels like a lot of ignorant nonsense from Justice Dems that have conned into the years worth of GOP propaganda against her, without realizing it.
I don't really think about her much but the few people I've talked to just have vague criticisms. --- It's okay to be white. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Balrog0 posted...What issues is Pelosi notably more liberal on? than the people running against her for speaker which AFAIK is actually no one right now, but Tim Ryan was the last person to run against her as minority leader and Seth Moulton is the dude who is openly recruiting someone to run against her the other person who expressed interest was Marcia Fudge but she has backed off of that and I didn't include her name because AOC can't possibly be referring to her as being more right wing than Pelosi --- But to you who are listening I say: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. ...

I think the point AOC was making was only an endorsement insofar as Pelosi is the only runner. Read more like a rallying cry to me, but imo she has the position already.

But it's the Blue Dogs(*ahem* "Problem Solver" Caucus) who are currently trying to replace her?(hilariously, none of them are willing to stand as a candidate) Don't really get where you're coming from with the whole Justice Dem rant.

The problem is that the only candidate they even bothered floating was Marcia Fudge. https://www.washingtonpost.com/crime-law/2018/11/19/former-judge-brutally-assaulted-his-wife-now-shes-dead-hes-been-arrested/ She, uhh, supported that guy. None of them have even declared their candidacy, they're just trying to make a clumsy power-play and AOC et. all are attempting to use their doomed attempt at a coup to get leverage on Pelosi, because they (presumably) also don't have the votes to depose her(though AOC's tweet definitely suggests she would like to). ...
