Note: Why would she say if it is not true? What is she doing on Breibart's show? Nancy IS 71 and the odds of taking the house in 2012 are slim. No one here in San Francisco would blame her if she did decide to retire.

Nancy Pelosi’s office says her daughter is wrong when she says the California Democrat wants to leave politics.

Alexandra Pelosi, a filmmaker, said in an interview with Andrew Breitbart’s Big Government, that her mother is staying in Washington only for her donors.

“She would retire right now, if the donors she has didn’t want her to stay so badly,” Alexandra Pelosi told Big Government. “They know she wants to leave, though. They think she’s destined for the wilderness. She has very few days left. She’s 71, she wants to have a life, she’s done. It’s obligation, that’s all I’m saying.”

Nadeam Elshami, a spokesman for the House minority leader, said it’s simply not true.
