Pelosi: House Democrats should skip the national convention

Pelosi: House Democrats should skip the national convention. “I’m not encouraging anyone to go to the convention, having nothing to do with anything except I think they should stay home, campaign in their districts, use their financial and political resources to help them win their election.” Anyone like birdcalls? Here’s what a Democrat owl sounds like: Barack-whoooo?

  • the fact that anyone in the MSM or anywhere else on the left would have the gall to attack the Republican Party for not being well organized just because primary voters took the time to actually hear what the Presidential candidates had to say (including "Tea Party" gatherings, speeches, and interests), vet them properly, and make sure not to nominate one too early, rather than annointing one years in advance with no experience, is amazing.

    when I constantly read this kind of total disarray about the Democrats straight out of their own mouths is unbelievable. it's amazing this party even still exists with stuff like this going on, let alone that anyone is dumb enough to elect them to a majority in the Senate or House. as for the White House, well yeah the writing's on the wall there...

    • remember, she was for Iraq before she was against it. just like she was for Barack first, you know before all the "cool kids" were doing it...and we have to pass the bill to find out what's in it... yadda yadda. SF politicking at its finest.

    • If anyone is running against her this time, they should have all their posters have a pic of her and O smiling about the Obamacare law.

      • poppajoe---Out here in Kalifornia, it wouldn't matter. There's enough uneducated, freeloader, entitlement, illegal, and Hollywood types (did I miss anyone?) that would vote her in forever. With DC we have a chance to turn the country around w/ our votes. Out here I don't think that will happen in my lifetime.

  • Do I smell a hint of desperation? I have an even better idea, have "Dear Leader" campaign for you in your district. Might as well eat the pudding at that point.
