The steep price of crossing Nancy Pelosi – War Room

Could it be that the Democrats asked Ms. Harman to run again so that Ms. Winograd could be denied the seat. Making it more readily winnable for the more politically conformist and malleable Ms. Hahn? Carefully planned political positioning could be a  better explanatory frame than this political back-biting mythologizing. It certainly plays to an audience enamored of the notion of ‘Bitchdom’ a perennial misogynist trope.

About stephenkmacksd

Rootless cosmopolitan,down at heels intellectual;would be writer. 'Polemic is a discourse of conflict, whose effect depends on a delicate balance between the requirements of truth and the enticements of anger, the duty to argue and the zest to inflame. Its rhetoric allows, even enforces, a certain figurative licence. Like epitaphs in Johnson’s adage, it is not under oath.' https://www.lrb.co.uk/v15/n20/perry-anderson/diary
