Remind me what Pelosi is effective on!

She got a bunch of members to end their political careers by voting for the ACA. She knew it. They knew it. Hell, she got them to pass a public option. It was the Senate who failed us. With how politically craven most politicians are, getting a bunch of them to make a vote they know will doom them is both ice cold and effective as ****.

She's gotten a bunch of stuff out of Boehner (and a lesser extent Ryan because he has to be careful because this fact is what caused Boehner to lose his Speakership) because even in the goddamn minority Boehner had to come to her to bail him out of the HFC trying to shut down the government or default on the national debt.

She just always delivers the votes. I know this is the Senate, but something like that trainwreck failure to repeal the ACA that ended with McCain sinking it would never have gone down with her.

Also this is totally not important but will bring me a bunch of satisfaction: She'll troll the hell out of Trump. Just by being a woman in power who can thwart his agenda. I'm petty like that.
