I just watched Pelosi's new HBO documentary that follows John McCain supporters on the campaign trail. It brought back a rush of anxiety from those months and weeks leading up to election, when the hate and fear of Obama were a constant presence in the Media. Pelosi attempts to "hold a mirror" up to Republicans and show where they're coming from. Some really scary stuff emerges.
To watch this documentary now can almost feel refreshing, knowing that Obama won, but then you realize that all these people are still out there and have not suddenly changed their minds. Here's an interview Pelosi did with Rachel Maddow to promote the film.
