OK WHY is Pelosi so scary to the Reps?

[dmallind]

Forgive my cluelessness here but I tend not to really think too much about Rep propaganda since I'm in the "reality based community".

However on another forum (non-political focus) where I post a couple of the right wingers keep bringing her up as a reason not to vote Dem tomorrow.

Now I'm in no danger of not voting Dem but some people are of course and oft-repeated memes have frustratingly large amounts of influence.

So does anyone know WHY Pelosi is used as such a boogeyman and why she works apparently well enough as one to get so much repetition in their screed??

I mean setting aside guesses about misogyny and "loony SF liberal" and all that, does anyone who has more patience than I with dittohead propaganda know exactly what it is that bothers them so much? Has she proposed any particularly progressive legislation or espoused an especially far-left world view?
