bjarvisDoes anyone think Nancy Pelosi is all that scary as a potential house leader?
I'm more afraid she may not have the skills required to solidify a new majority, hold to the advertised agenda and build a base for the 2008 election cycle. Going insane with power or launching a series of extreme left-wing initiatives seem extremely unlikely, despite the demonization of her over the past number of months.

But seriously, this is a very, very smart political creature. I've heard that she raised tons of money for the newly elected (or re-elected) members and that should give her plenty of power over them, given the all-important nature of filthy lucre in politics.
