Associated Press: 'Nancy Pelosi to Announce Plans Wednesday'


Source:Associated Press- U.S. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (Democrat, California) and her Democratic Leadership team.

"Speaking at a press conference to introduce new elected House Democrats, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi says she'll announce Wednesday whether she'll continue in her current position or step down."

Even though Nancy Pelosi is 72 now, it's not her fault that Democrats lost the House in 2010. You can blame that on the bad economy, Democratic President, ObamaCare being very unpopular, etc. 

Could Democrats have picked up more than 7-8 seats that they did in 2012 to just put them back over 200, probably. But it was a very close presidential election and an election where the Republican Party should've not have only held the House, but probably won back the Senate as well. Had they not have ran some really bad candidates statewide in some swing states like Pennsylvania, Indiana, and Missouri, they probably would've won back the Senate, even with President Obama being reelected. 

For people who think that Nancy Pelosi is getting old and House Democrats need new leadership, I would ask you who would you replace her with. Who in the Democratic Caucus is as good and as effective leader, that can deal with a caucus that's ideologically as diverse, as Nancy Pelosi and who has accomplished as much as Leader Pelosi.
