Duh. She's old, like all of the dem leadership. She is not made for being anything other than queen bee. The Speaker. Not happening this cycle.

The writing is clearly on the wall that no one believes that Democrats have a chance in 2014.

The totality of the circumstances suggests that the Minority Leader post does not project the type of influence Nancy Pelosi seeks. With virtually no chance that Democrats take the House, and thus no promotion for Nancy Pelosi to Majority Leader, she will retire in 2014.

What do you think?

Prediction:
You'll continue to be wrong so long as you confuse what you want to happen for what is likely to happen.

House Dems again tap Nancy Pelosi as their leader
