everything she has done, with few exceptions, maybe she is a bit more conservative than I would prefer, but she has always had the general welfare in mind. AND she has tremendous ability and knowledge to be Speaker at a time when it is utterly important to be up to speed in that position. This is no time to be making a change. Maybe later, when others have learned from her, but not now. We have lots of talent to choose from. Let that talent become knowledgeable first.
