They're historical figures damnit.

Regardless of their politics damnit.

Stop talking about them.

It's a divided country.

Get something done.

Republicans, do not choose Jim Jordan as the next House GOP Leader. He has baggage.

Obama and Pelosi should just leave the rest of us Americans alone. Obama is about the only former President to campaign in a midterm and with his usual rhetoric as harsh as usual too. Although Pelosi victory speech tonight was surprisingly acceptable in content and tone.

I wish Obama had spoken more. Oprah, too, for that matter.
They both crawled all over Florida and Georgia and evidently reminded people why Republicans should be elected, since everyone they campaigned for lost.

I wish they had campaigned strongly in California and New York.
Leave him alone? .......... Nah


Pelosi:
There are 58 NeverPelosi Democratic candidates who look like they will win. So it doesn't look like Pelosi can win Speaker. Here's an article that explains it all, including what happens if members simply vote "present".
She is not a shoo-in. And if too many D's vote "present" it could throw the Speakership to the R's - even without a majority.

You don't get to dictate what they want to do.

Oh, and by the way, that's Madam Speaker Pelosi, to you. Read that and weep.

Pelosi is a two-faced worn out wind bag full of hot air.

Tonight she spoke of good legislation and bi-partisanship. Easy to say on election night.

It's hard to believe she'd legislate and not investigate, and I'll believe it when I see it.
