There are many in both parties who should have retired long ago.

I think she and Pauly plan on spending their golden years (wait! what comes after your golden years?) getting truly hammered on a daily basis.

She may be replaced but she or her replacement will no longer be speaker, she will be out of the limelight.

Yep.

One of the reasons that her constituents continue to vote for her is that they like the pull her seniority affords even when she isn't Speaker.

With whoever takes her place, that will be reset.

Speaking of hammered, regarding a recent break-in, the cameras in this photo were monitored by the U.S. capitol police and we should be seeing the video shortly….

Correct, we've had 4 recent notable people pass away while still serving (McCain, Lewis, Cummings, Ruthie, etc I'm sure there are more)

These people rather pass away before giving up their power. And it's sad.

Sources in the article say Nancy doesn’t want to be unseated again as the speaker and will just call it quits to spend time with her husband at the family vineyards in Napa valley.

Your thoughts?
The Crypt Keeper Pelosi needs to be put back into her sarcophagus and shoved back under the pyramid where they found her.
