House Dems: 'No More Pelosi'

Hot off the heels of a historical defeat Tuesday night, out-going Democratic Majority Leader in the House Nancy Pelosi wants to run for Minority Leader.  Her fellow Democrats are not mincing words.  They say "no more."

Already, several House Democrats have spoken out vehemently against Pelosi, who many blame as part of the reason for the Democrats' pummeling four days ago.

In North Carolina, Democrat Larry Kissell stated that he hopes Pelosi "will change her mind and step aside."  Representative Joe Donnelly of Indiana has stated that he is "disappointed that Speaker Pelosi is going to seek the position of Minority Leader."  Representative Dan Boren of Oklahoma stated that Pelosi's bid is "very disappointing."  Representative Heath Shuler said he may even challenge Pelosi's bid.

With many against Pelosi, it is hard to understand why she is pushing on.  Yet even these Representatives do not comprise the entirety of Democrats against Pelosi in the House.  Even hardened supporters of Pelosi, ones who voted with her near or at 100%, want her out of power.

Democrat Albio Sires of New Jersey admonished Pelosi, saying she didn't "know when to move on."  "I voted for everything she asked me to vote for.  You know, sometimes in this business it's difficult to know when to move on," he stated.

Pelosi, however, has stood tall against opposition in her own party, saying that Democrats had "urged" her to run for Minority Leader.  "We have no intention of allowing our great achievements to be rolled back," she stated.

Surely this will be interesting to see how this unfolds, but there is one definite truth that can be gleaned out of all this: the American people aren't the only people who want Pelosi out of power.

Oh, an just to point this out, but this is exactly what I predicted would happen.  See the article here.
