In addition to Hakeem Jeffries as caucus chair, Katherine Clark and Pete Aguilar should also be outstanding D leaders. I understand Aguilar will take on responsibilities around messaging, a key role considering the unforgiving (read: biased) media climate. I understand Jim Clyburn will be part of the team as assistant leader. That sounds like a promising leadership group. Republicans, meanwhile, can't even spell leadership.

While Nancy Pelosi and Steney Hoyer are giving up their leadership positions, the most powerful Democrat in the nation is keeping his role of kingmaker: Jim Clyburn. If you want to understand what's preventing the Democrats from becoming a progressive party, it's the ancient, sole Democratic congressman in South Carolina caucus. If you want to understand how awful South Carolina is, I have two words: Joe "YOU LIE!" Wilson. #jimclyburn #democrats #usa #politics
