CA-11: Pelosi to Announce Plans After Election Next Month

“Nancy Pelosi, who has come under increasing pressure from fellow Democrats here to retire, will make an announcement about her plans after California’s election on a redistricting measure early next month,” Politico reports.

“And if Pelosi, who is 85, does leave office, she has been publicly elevating one Democrat who could run to succeed her: San Francisco Supervisor Connie Chan — who has emerged as a progressive force inside City Hall and who, much like Pelosi, is closely aligned with the city’s powerful labor movement.”

It's time for her to pass the torch. She had a fall on a CODEL overseas a few months ago, and is not looking well.

I did it to give another the chance to succeed in a career I loved. It’s best to go out ahead, which I did, and I don’t regret it. It gave me valuable time with my husband before he passed and the realization of how much teaching was eating up my sanity and health.

I hope she does the right thing, unlike Chuck Grassley who's 91 and senile and has only decided to step down so his Grand Son can take over his cushy job. More corruption by the Repukes, part 2 million.
