Damn, Pelosi!

[lapucelle]

31. Pelosi's job is to lead her caucus in the House of Representatives.

She is stunningly effective in that role, as the past six weeks have shown. Here is a description of the historical role of the House Minority Leader.

The minority leader serves as floor leader of the "loyal opposition," and is the minority counterpart to the Speaker. Although many of the basic leadership responsibilities of the minority and majority leaders are similar, the minority leader speaks for minority party and its policies and works to protect the minority party's rights.

Here's another description:

The minority leader is responsible for (1) developing the minority position, (2) negotiating with the majority party, (3) directing minority caucus activities on the chamber floor and (4) leading debate for the minority.

If she were a head coach or a CEO, I don't very much that she "would have been fired by now". She is much too good at the job her colleagues ELECTED her to do earlier this year.

"Something" has to change! I know, let's remove one of the most effective Congressional leaders in recent history! That oughta work.

No wonder the Republicans are leading a smear campaign against her.
