I would say that the pilot doesn't recognize the fact that Pelosi ran the House with an iron hand. She never allowed the opposition to take part in debate. She pushed the socialistic programs she wanted to see into passage. That one can be seen by the way she managed to change votes of Democrat members on Health Care alone. She could never have had her needed majority to pass that abortion without pounding them over the head.
I would say that the pilot failed to see her marching with House leaders and black caucus members through the Tea Party demonstration carrying her way over sized gavel with that false smile on her face.
I don't think I'd get too excited--John Boehner isn't exactly what I'd call a statesmen. He's going to have to force the R's to support raising the debt ceiling--that should go well. He's Bush II republican party business as usual. The tea party won NOTHING, and now we're stuck with the same old garbage all over again.
You seem to ignore the impact Eric Cantor will have as House Majority leader and that Paul Ryan, a real fiscal conservative, will have with the House finance committee.
Cantor and Ryan are bright up and coming GOP "Young Guns" with the best interest of this Republic at heart.
Let us be clear, in case it hasn't fully sunk into the minds of Obama and the trash-talking Democrats yet: You can take your faux olive branch and shove it. Thank you.
She was very sharp at holding her democratic votes in line. She knew who she could allow to vote no and still get the votes to win. However she did nothing ever to reach out to the republicans or to stop the corruption.
Tip Oneal was as good as she was but always listened to the other side and tried to bring them to the debate and have a say. he still had the votes but never shut the republicans out of the room
rangel better hope Nancy can get to hold his ethics hearings and not the new congress. She promised to drain the swamp of corruption and did nothing to drain the swamp . She was closed minded, hateful and refused to let a republican voice to be heard.
She hated republicans displayed that hate and then you ask why did republicans not like her? dumb question you reap what you sow
Pelosi was supposed to be the Speaker of the HOUSE. Instead she played partisan all the way and was Speaker of the Democrats.
She was a very closed individual, never giving respect to the other side, she was pretty much pig-headed it was going to be her way, or the highway. She refused to listen to anything the other side had to say, wasn't she going to be bi-partisian. So closed minded she was, and if you don't give the other side, a chance to talk about problems, how can you even begin to debate them.
Very obvious, she was not going to give the Republicinas anything, wanted nothing to do with them, would not give them the time of day, pretty much in her own world, and this is what has now cost her. And she seemed to have pulled quite a number of strings.
Lol I've been waiting for this moment. Good day for sure!
I was hoping she would get voted out office, but I guess that would be asking too much from the voters in her San Francisco district. Overall, I'm happy she won't be Speaker Of The House in a couple of months.

Maybe yes, maybe no. I doubt your crystal ball works any better than anyone else's. This is not the same group as the standard GOP fair of the past 20 yrs.
