2. Or maybe she's just calling it as she sees it.
OR maybe she's coveting the job herself!

Any way you cut it, I love Pelosi!

6. Hmmm... Obama/Pelosi.....
I don't know. It would take a little time for me to warm up to that. But I'm surprised she's going for Obama. I think Clinton has probably pissed off a LOT of congressmen once you see the female reps abandoning her.

3. Maybe
She can't really endorse because she is the Speaker of the House, but most of her closest allies have endorsed Obama, except for Murtha. That would be a great endorsement before PA, btw.

I read somewhere that she was thinking about endorsing Obama (this was a while ago) but needed to figure out if it would interfere with her duties as speaker.

I think she will endorse him if he has more delegates at the end of the primaries, and she can deliver a lot of the remaining House members. That is why I am not as worried about the superdelegates as a lot of people are. But if Clinton can make Obama look unelectable by June all bets are off.

8. Pelosi wants a larger majority to work with... and Obama has longer coattails... it's a no-brainer.

10. Never trust the "concern card" from the right.
Pure and simple.

11. I've written two threads saying that
Pelosi has made it pretty clear that she supports Obama. She slapped hill down but good.
