Nancy Pelosi is a great leader!
WASHINGTON The campaign arm of House Democrats has posted its highest off-year August fundraising haul ever, the group told NBC News.
Rep. Nancy Pelosi of California is the Democratic leader and would be in line to return as speaker if Democrats could win back the House.
The DCCC raised $6.26 million in August, compared to $4.15 million for August 2015, the last comparable year before a midterm election. Overall, the DCCC has raised $72.46 million in 2017. And the committee touted its online fundraising, which it says has totaled $31.26 million for the year so far, including $2.4 million last month.

A noisy minority will not get in her way.
