In reply to the discussion: Pelosi damn well better be Speaker. [View all]tymorial
(3,433 posts)8. I could not agree more.
This country is in crisis mode and we need effective leadership in the house. The Republicans and Trump want a divided Democrat Party. They will use any opportunity to exploit disagreement among Democrats to evoke an image of instability.
All that being said I also believe that future planning, political ambition, and strategy is extremely important. We need more diverse leadership within the party. Our leadership is aging and this must be a consideration moving forward. Immediately however I cannot think of anyone more effective as Speaker then Pelosi.

A year? Maybe, or maybe not. I think it is better to know what a year from now looks like
