Pelosi Puff Piece Lets Slip "Airhead" Phrase

Time Mag has a superficially positive piece on Pelosi that slips in the lede way down several paragraphs into the story:
Pelosi carries a chip on her shoulder, believing that fellow Democrats and media elites have constantly underestimated her political ability, dating back to her unsuccessful effort to become head of the Democratic National Committee in 1985, when she was called an "airhead" by a labor-union official. She will talk about those political battles only vaguely but told me the Democratic establishment in Washington "couldn't control me, so they needed to take me down" and "They can't even believe the fact that I'm going to become Speaker, but they're getting used to it."

Pelosi as Speaker would be the gift that will keep on giving for the Republicans. This true airhead bimbo wanted to have the Dems run this year on the slogan "A Contract on America" until someone with a triple digit IQ informed this Italian gramma that the phrase would sound like a "mob hit."

This specimen has moved the Dems so far left that were they to accede to power, two years would be enough to convince a confused electorate that the Dems and their triple threat: airhead Pelosi, girlie-man Reid, and maniac Dean---were all a menace to political comity as the country is accustomed.

Another McGovern moment appears to be in the offing. Let's hope this dodo-woman gets to be Speaker and demonstrates to the country why the far-left is in thrall to a mass psychosis.
