I saw her down in San Fran a few years ago, bumped elbows literally, too hard at that and had to apologize.

Who even knew that she gives these regular (weekly?) pressers? .Pelosi speaks softly & carries a big, informed, eloquent stick for Democrats. MSM sound bites, which is all she ever gets, have created a false myth about Pelosi's determination, messaging, grasp
of Repub evils.

(51,129 posts)4. M$M doesn't like realistic policy wonks, they want screaming and raving, fast talking maniacs with
short sound bites. They worry a long sentence will either make their average viewer change channels ...
or become educated and tune them out.

are to that MSM obsessive superficiality. Even our nighttime MSNBC Liberal 3 Shows have never shown Pelosi in any depth beyond
those sensation seeking sound blurbs (edits) or staccato "interviews.". Too bad more of the public don't see enough of her to realize how much of a gem she is.
