    Most mature adults learn from their experiences, and change their behavior based on what they learned. What we’re seeing is a young politician with raw talent learn how to wield her power. If that rubs you the wrong way so be it, but she is one of the most effective political communicators we have, and she’s only getting better. Politics isn’t just about what you say and to whom, it’s about how you say things and how you leverage your influence to build coalitions that can get things done. She’s learning all the right lessons, and I’m loving it.

        Do you live in her district? If not, she’s really not affecting you in any way.

        So… if she doesn’t fall lock-step in line with your every agenda, you turn on her? Please stop wondering why people don’t take leftists seriously.
