cut the bull

July 25, 2018

Wanted to make sure you saw this: Danny O’Connor, the Dem nominee in OH-12’s special election, campaigned on the fact that he would not support Nancy Pelosi for Speaker.

BUT, when he was pressed on it by Chris Matthews last night, he admitted if push came to shove, he’d vote for her if she was his party’s choice.

Now, who else do we know who’s taken a phony position to distance himself from Pelosi? That’s right! Jason Crow, Gil Cisneros, and Ben McAdams!

As the Washington Post’s Paul Kane eloquently explains: Every reporter covering a House Dem candidate claiming they won’t support Pelosi needs to watch this clip. If [a] candidate says “we need new leadership,” that doesn’t mean he/she would vote against Pelosi on Jan. 3.

Maybe it’s time to revisit this with these candidates and get their take?
