Pelosi reelected House minority leader

You think she'll double down or pretend to move toward center?

jmho, she will act like she is moving in the right direction to appease the less liberal among her party, but when the chips are down, she will bare her fangs and fight for the socialist agenda tooth and nail

I think she will double down on stupid. I mean that has been her tactic in the past. Why change??

This.

I see no evidence that the Left, esp. the far left coastal elites of the DNC have at all even a bit acknowledged they missed the boat or may be mistaken in their approach in any way.

As long as they believe this was a vote for racism and stupidity, and they see these voters as "deplorables" and not equal Americans, they for sure won't change their approach. At the story in the other thread said, they see white people as deserving of this dismissal and are totally focused on the politics of becoming the party of minorities and the left, believing that is the way to stay in power.

of course it's a complete aside that their policies do more to hurt minorities and the poor in this country than about anything you could do, but the last thing they care about is results, just staying in power, and long term they still see that as the way to do it.

The coastie leftists think they need to move further left to enhance their appeal. They see no need to move to the middle.

Agree 100% with this assessment. And since it has failed them miserably, I was hoping that she would win and we'd get more of their nonsense. It just continues to validate why Trump was able to pull off the upset.

I still can't believe Trump actually won, even all of these weeks later.
