Take Lisa (voter intent) Merkusky in AK. She could have played by the rules and given a passive endorsement to the guy who won the primary. But she did not. She ran a write in campaign and she is going to win. She sees things the way I do, you fight to win. Miller ran too far right, and thought he was sitting pretty, but got sucker punched.
Ironically, I would not have voted for Murkoyski in the primary, but I would have voted for her in the general - I did not know she was a fighter - my kind of person. You and Pelosi seem to blame others.

This doesn't make any sense. If Murkowski "broke the rules" by running as a write-in candidate then Pelosi is arguably "breaking the rules" by attempting to retain her leadership position even though Sean Hannity and aceventura think she shouldn't. So she is a fighter, and is probably somewhere punching somebody in the face as we speak.
And there's nothing wrong with blaming the people who deserve blame- attribution of responsibility is just one of the ways in which rational people use logic to make sense of the world. I guarantee that Murkowski will blame Miller if he succeeds in getting enough write-in ballots tossed for her to lose the election.

My point had nothing to do with gender.

I didn't think it did, but you used the Mars/Venus line, which is a direct (though unintentional?) reference to a book about gender relations.

Pelosi is a victim, Pelosi has no responsibility in the recent slaughter, isn't that the argument? Fighters don't have that attitude.

Pelosi arguably doesn't have responsibility in the recent slaughter. And it is entirely factual to say that she has suffered slights from the right wing media. And it is entirely plausible that if she were to be replaced with someone else, that person would also suffer similarly.
What this has to do with fighting is beyond me. Is your premise that the fact that Pelosi isn't embracing the way the right wing has distorted reality means that she isn't a fighter? That's dumb. Fighters are people who fight for what they think is right, a characteristic which generally has nothing to do with a willingness to embrace the slander of their antagonists.

I don't have all the answers and I recognize that fact. There are whole mountains of things that I don't understand. I do typically know enough to know when I don't actually understand something. You should give it a try.

How about some more name calling to the people who have a different view point? That never gets old.

There is a difference between having a "different" viewpoint and having a view point that behaves like a newtonian fluid. Besides, weren't you the accusing those who disagree with you of having unamerican values?
