#3 Yes, they do. Not for Majority Leader, but for Speaker of the House, they will. (Recall the "nail biter" between Newt Gingrich and that guy from Missouri whose name escapes me... the guy with all the imaginary friends who "tell" him things...)

#4 Well, then who in the world decided Nancy was the "presumtive" Speaker?

Oh, yeah...the press.

#5 Not going to happen. Trunk leadership isnt that smart at this point in time.

Plus Pelosi is a better foil against which they can take Congress back in 08.

#6 By all means elect Pelosi Speaker. After two years of the idiocy the Donks wont see power again until 2050 or later. They have a Clintonista advising them to raise taxes, Murtha as majority Leader, and dont get me started on the chairmanships. Not only will Saturday Night Live have tons of material but I suspect that some Donk members might just face a recall election after their constituents see how they are acting. A lot of the freshman got elected by leaving the term Democrat and Liberal far from any commercial or sound bite.

#7 Why would the GOP do something like that? They were told by their one-time supporters, "you screwed up so we'd rather suffer the donks than keep you around". So the GOP will say, if you wanna suffer, make it so. Madam of the House Nancy, Mad Dog as Whip, Rangel as Ways & Means and Hastings guarding your secrets.... be careful what you wish for.....
