What gall this woman has!
Frm the Washington Post 9an opinion piece):
The Tweet from @SpeakerPelosi was simple and to-the-point: "Driven by the urgency of creating jobs & protecting #hcr, #wsr, Social Security & Medicare, I am running for Dem Leader." In short, Speaker Nancy Pelosi isn't going anywhere. She's not giving up her House seat, as other deposed speakers have. And she's not giving up a chance to lead the Democratic Party conference as House minority leader. Brava!
(For the uninitiated #hcr is Twitter shorthand for health care reform, and #wsr is for Wall Street reform.)
I've already extolled her leadership virtues this week. But Gene Robinson does her tenure justice with his column today.

She's losing her job not because she does it poorly but because she does it so well....Obama came to office with a long, ambitious agenda. Pelosi had a big majority to work with in the House, but it was ideologically diverse -- Blue Dogs, progressives, everything in between. Somehow, she managed to deliver.
Now there are some within the Democratic conference who want Pelosi to step away from the leadership altogether. Rep. Heath Shuler (D-N.C.) and Rep. Jim Matheson (D-Utah) are urging a new direction for the conference. I totally get that. Democrats were slaughtered, and now they want her to go away like last year's Hermes scarf. Now that Pelosi has announced her intentions, we'll see whether those seeking a new course have the votes to keep her out of the leadership. Good luck with that, folks. As Chuck Todd just Tweeted, "Pelosi's a good vote-counter, she would NOT have announced if she didn't think she had the votes."
Earlier today, NBC News's Luke Russert laid out a six-point case for why Pelosi should stay on as minority leader. Points five and six are the most persuasive to me.
;5. Why should Pelosi be the only
but couldn't find the correct words for some of the things you brought up.
i also wholeheartedly agree with what you stated about sam and I would read sam's posts any time. She/he is well versed on politics and it would be nice if some of the posters wouldn't bash her/him but LISTEN and RESEARCH the points she/he posts. They just might learn something.
