If the midterms are as predicted, realize this country will have taken a "fork in the road." It will have effects for years, perhaps decades. Please! Spare the whinning when this has to be acknowledged. Republicans have necessarily shown they prefer to be in power above all else. For a "single cause" the media has sang their song! (It dares to allege President Obama did not "work with the republican congress. HA!) Republicans have stood, on principle, for neither the people nor the constitution; and only begrudgingly for monied causes because they themselves need it. They have willfully, and with malice, repeatedly attacked the Office of the Presidency, because President Obama is in it.
The "road less traveled" which President Obama, Nancy Pelosi, and Harry Reid have taken, represents honored promises. Nancy Pelosi is one of the best things that ever happened to this country. President Barack Obama is one of the best things that ever happened to this country. Arguably, Harry Reid is also.
When we become "angry" with politicians who actually honor their promises, or make a reasonable effort to, its our "mirror," (the voters') that needs looking in. It is "Americans," like many of you writing on this page, whom I find increasingly frightening. The so-called "Tea Party" movement is a great example: At the end of the day this movement is "Joe Plumber" en masse. A "plant" by the republicans to gain power by any means. Our very ability to reason, analyze, or simply think using normative standards is infringed.
The "Tea Party," the radical republican right, almost all talkshow hosts 95.5 % are republicans, libertarians, or conservatives), and the fringe elements of both parties, for example, fail to even acknowledge that this country's national elections cannot be won by a "third party," so called, unless (aha!) the Constitution is changed. Right now, its (1) single-member district, plurality vote, winner takes ALL. Even if a few of them get elected under other party labels, they cannot change this.

I hate to sound discouraging but Pelosi will just move on to another challenging position in the House. I have been watching her since she was the whip, and I think no matter how crueling the Houses work tends to get there is always an place for Pelosi.

Pelosi always tries to appear cool, calm and collected in front of the cameras. When they write about her they say that she doesn't care what people think of her. You can bet that when they take that Speaker ot the House position away from her ... it will rip her heart out of her chest! She, as well as many of the other lefties, believe they did a great job forcing crap down the throats of Americans. Well, she is about to learn that we have gotten revenge for that ... and she is being kicked to the curb like common trash! She and many of the other lefties that forced that health care crap and stimulus crap down our throats are going to pay the price for being the smug pukes they have been.

Whether she is re elected in California to the House, or not ... Pelosi is finished. The House will belong to Republicans and she will just become a cog in the wheel. She won't have any say so because she will no longer be Speaker of the House, nor will she have any sort of "leadership" that anyone will care about. No one will care about what she thinks or has to say. She will be rendered totally useless for the left's purposes. Pelosi is finished ... as it should be. It's great to finally see the "Wicked Witch of the West dethroned!"

That would be the best position for Ms San Francisco.

This would guarantee nothing but all ut WAR on the floor.
No Republican,or Tea Party member will give this loon the time of day.
After the shenanigans she and Reid pulled off,her credibitlity is DEAD MEAT.

The fact is that "America" cannot give Nancy the boot because she is elected to the House by the voters in her San Francisco district which is one of the most liberal in the country. Then her Democratic collegues in the House in turn elect her to be their leader.
The lefty voters over in her district need to be strung out on pot in order for them to not show up at the polls next Tuesday and allow her opponent to win.

Whatever happened to her promise of Pay As You Go?
3 Trillion dollars more in debt is where she led the USA.
She didn't read or understand the Obamacare bill yest pushed it down our throats, telling us we'd find out what was in it after it was passed. The people said NO, she pushed it anyway. She is supposed to work for us, we do NOT work for her.
