It's a good step, but you'll have to excuse me if I have a hard time believing that the people who have voted for Nancy Pelosi every two years since before I was born actually will learn their lesson.

This is what I don't get. There are these politicians, across the board that don't seem to be well liked within their own party, but they win their election everytime. Either their state must really love them, or voting must be some sort of ritual where people just mark what they always have and go home. And look, I get it. CA doesn't want a Republican and KY doesn't want a Democrat. Great, that doesn't mean you have to elect the same person every damn time.
- saalweachter 4y agoWhile Congress as a whole has a net approval rating of something like -50%, in general everyone likes their own representatives and hates everyone else's. It doesn't matter what 330 million Americans think about Nancy Pelosi or Mitch McConnel. It only matters what the 780,000 people in CA-12 or the 4.5 million people in KY think about them (well, the majority of voters within the populations in question).
