Not progressive? too old? feh! this is not an entry-level position AND she is famous for mentoring younger women. there is a reason the republicans are spreading hatred of her so far it's seeped into democratic consciousness. get the facts. look up her record.here. let me help. [congress.gov]

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.She should stay and adopt the more Progressive stance that the Democratic Majority of Americans has Taken to cause this Giant Blue Wave. Like you say it is NOT an Entry level Position. The House is the Foundation on which our Legislative branch stands and thus can control the Senate and the Executive branch with its Purse strings, Do NOT allow the repugnant infection to taint the conversation or actions of Our Progressive caucus.

she is already progressive but it never hurts to become more so. i am not a perfectionist voltaire was right when he said the best is the enemy of the good, in that regard; all in all she is the best the house has to offer for that position, and she is, as she always has been, grooming others for her position and especially mentoring younger women. she has been doing this for a long time. i think that there is a misapprehension about her actual level of progressiveness and generosity. she'll never be as progressive as i am lol but i'm chronically ill and have no political experience whatsoever, so i am not running for office and she is there and experienced and in good health. she's also pretty darned flexible for her age (i am speaking mentally) and i think she will do what you hope she does!

The GOP would love it if Pelosi remains Speaker. They are pushing the debate to divide the Democrats and cause weakness. Let's the process go, if she win, back her, if she loses, back the winner. Get over it.

you're totally wrong about what the gop would love. they're showing that. but you're right about two things: one thing is about their pushing the debate to divide us. we're letting them, too. but they do want her out. you're also right about whom to back: the winner. but we have a say in that, too. they're not in power yet so they have not chosen yet. we can recommend. i recommend pelosi.

@genessa I was a delegate to the Democratic State convention. I've met Pelosi, doubt she remembers me. I am more progressive than she is and I will wait to see who challenges her to make a decision. Pelosi has high negatives and fired up the Trump base into action, another Speaker might not, depends. This is why the GOP wants her back and pushes division in the DNC, hoping for a tea-party like faction in the progressives if she wins to stymie legislation.
@clarkatticus they do not want her back though you are right about their wanting division. it is okay to wait to see who challenges her but while i too am more progressive than she is, i also know she is an extremely effective speaker and the gop are terrified of her, which is why they do NOT want her back. the fact that their objection potentially sows division is gravy to them. they want someone less experienced and less effective. her high negatives come with the territory. any democratic leader who is effective will fire up the trump base. hell, even one who is not effective will do that. the D by the name does that!
