Dear Nancy,
I woke up to a very somber crowd at the Morning Joe table. All kinds of thoughts and commentary were tossed around about how the ‘face’ of the DNC is Nancy Pelosi, and in many districts, your name has become toxic.
It seems that brilliant powerful women cannot be tolerated in this country. If you were morphed into your male alter ego, HE would go down as one of the most brilliant strategic planners and policy makers in House history. And, without a doubt one of the biggest fund raisers.
With that said, I must acknowledge that I am 71 years old. I know that you are 77 years old. As an older person I am glad to see the new faces in the stores, in the offices, and hopefully soon in the Congress. Nancy please step aside. When you step aside, it should not be in anger, or contention, but rather a natural changing of the guard. Teach your successor. Nancy, pick your successor and then help them succeed, that’s what great leaders do.
Your admiring fan,
Darlene Mitchell
