Pelosi

In the next two years, you will need a ruthless person who knows where the bodies are buried and all the legislative tricks that can be tried. Pelosi is that person. If there is one person that will not be run over or snookered by the Senate and Trump, it’s Pelosi.

This is not the time for ‘on the job’ training in fighting the Thugs. You find someone who can match her skill, resolve, and plain out mean let me know.

EVERYONE is smarter than him! He is the dumbest person to EVER reside in the WH. He is upset because after all his rallies, the gop LOST. He thought his "popularity" would save the day. Well - that plus all the taxpayer money it took to fly his orange ass nationwide. So, while he resumes his golfing, the dems. will be examining every aspect of his personal life that the gop kept covered for him for all this time. Has it only been 2 years? Seems like a lifetime to me.

We need someone ruthless. Nancy hasn't seemed to be that person.

This morning is not nearly as depressing as two year ago, but it ain't great. We need our A-team of accomplished players. Ms. Pelosi should lead the Democratic House.

But I don't think we want him for the position.

Besides, his current job as president of the Russian Federation pays WAY more. I think we're better off sticking with Nancy.

Let's get a "Real" Democrat to energize the base, I'm done with these "Limousine Liberals." Time for the party to steer back to it's roots and get rid of this Third Way" mentality.

What was your comment a little while ago Nancy?
If we take back the house we will we will go back to "Pay Go?"

two years ago, her goal was to regain the house then make a seamless transition to new leadership; this will be Pelosi's last rodeo, then she will ride into the sunset a winner.

She has my total support.

I don't understand what the fuss against Pelosi is all about. She's been an excellent Speaker of the House. I like the way
she answered Trump's threats of dire consequences if she goes ahead with the probe into his income taxes. So cool and calmly logical in her response. No one can replace her years of experience navigating the road blocks anyone in that position must steer with skill and grace.
