From Politico:
"House Speaker Nancy Pelosi moves in a rarefied world of high society and high-level politics — and nothing underscores that fact quite like her plans for the August recess.
Pelosi will spend next weekend quietly tending to top party donors and political allies at a series of private events in Northern California.
The two-day “issues conference” starts next Friday night with a dinner for roughly 170 guests on the back lawn of Pelosi’s multimillion-dollar home in the fashionable Pacific Heights neighborhood in San Francisco.
The following day, Pelosi will shepherd her guests to a Napa Valley winery with buildings designed by world-famous architect Frank Gehry; the speaker and her husband, investor Paul Pelosi, own a nearby vineyard worth between $5 million and $25 million, according to her annual financial disclosure report."
.....and maybe that's one reason why she has trouble empathizing with the "little people" and their everyday issues.
Perhaps a town-hall meeting could help her "reconnect"?

b.o. has been saying similar things.
Never fear: the V-plow is slicing the snow, and at the same time pushing ever more of it into ever denser and denser piles.
The wheels will begin to slip.
They already are.
