Obama-Pelosi

17 October, 2008 (18:21) | Ideas | By: KT

To match some of the Obama rhetoric, an interview with Nancy Pelosi and Charlie Rose. Yay, my representative is the most powerful woman in the country! (Besides Oprah, of course.)

Whenever I usually see Speaker Pelosi talk, I know she’s been coaching herself on talking points, and they usually don’t work in a sentence very well. Well, she has the same problem here, but it evaporates within five minutes after she gets them out of the way. She gives a fascinating view of the banking crisis from the inside, and how she sees legislative priorities. This is the person I see winning legislative victories through strategies and tactics. I suppose it’s too much to ask any one person to be able to be an effective legislator and talking point spewer. She did get it all right in the end: educate innovate prevail. Oh there was a third point before prevail, but it didn’t stick. I wish I saw more of this Nancy and not the one in soundbites. This Nancy rocks!

Go San Francisco Values! Go progressive caucus!!!
