The political knifes are drawn

The House versions of bills have almost invariably been better than the Senate versions. And then the House is pressured to just accept the Senate version instead of going through conference because of how awful Senate procedure would be if they had to vote on the conferenced version. She's only the leader of the House, which has been completely sidelined in this Congress.

She has been given hardly any say. I know that some people hate her so much that they don't want her to have any, but I'm not sure how anybody else could think that she's been given to much.
