In reply to the discussion: Black Caucus threatens fight over House leadership if Democrats win [View all]still_one
(98,883 posts)Politico seems to push to put emphasis on disunity between Democrats, and they have been doing more than their share as we get closer to the midterms.
It isn't the reporting of the story, it is the WAY they are doing it.
The Congressional Black Caucus has been an important Pelosi ally, but we don't want to mention that of course, and reading Politico's version of this story leaves the impression that a major fight and division is going to break out between Democrats as though it is a certainty, which is bullshit.
If the Democrats win the majority in the House there will be a legitimate campaign and challenge for the House leaderships. That is what happens. It happened with the republicans too, but for some reason only when it happens with the Democrats it will involve a major division.
As far as I am concerned Politico goes out of their way to present news about Democrats in the least positive way.
