Pelosi is going to do exactly what I expected/hoped she would. Single handedly destroy the Democratic Party. Now, let's just hope she doesn't destroy the country in the process.

The next two years are going to be BAD! But, it will probably finish off the Demo's once and for all. I pray for that every night!

#4 Mick, while I pray for their destruction too, I can't help but think (big-picture here) that we NEED a Donk Party that functions. The Repubs have gone off the reservation and for that just got smacked. But, a little competition is good every once in a while to make the pubbies take a lesson away from this. In other words, with no national Donk Party, the Pubbies, I'm afraid are just gonna become them (higher taxes, bigger spending, more "social" programs, etc.) like they've already done somewhat.

#5 Nanci also forgets that many House democrats owe her zero loyalty. Howard Dean saw to that by starving their campaigns of money to rebuild the State parties. Those that owe anybody loyalty owe it to Hillary, who raised her own funds, then doled them out to starving candidates.

Wouldn't it be a shocker if somebody other than Nanci was voted to be Speaker?

#7 ...I can't help but think (big-picture here) that we NEED a Donk Party that functions.

No, we need a second party that functions. It doesn't have to be the Donks. They (the donks) could reconstitute themselves after shedding the LLL, or, another party could form from those that have learned from the Donks left turn into Crazyville. I can only hope.

Wouldn't it be a shocker if somebody other than Nanci was voted to be Speaker?

It would be sweet justice.

#8 We will all be witness to the impending train wreck. Back to Clinton politics--the adults have all left the room. It would be humorous if it were not so worisome.

#9 she's paying off the Black Caucus for their supporting her for the speaker by removing the best informed ~~white woman~~ Representative in her party and installing a ~~black man~~ disgraced former impeached Judge (bribery). Racial prejudice is okay if it helps her stay in power. It's very simple, and disgusting

#10 Reyes might not be too bad for a Demonrat, but Hastings...

Pelosi is going to ... Single handedly destroy the Democratic Party.

It would be nice, but I don't think it will happen. The far left (such as SF) will continue to support moonbats. The moderate areas will say something like "OK, the leadership is bad, but OUR Representitive John Smith is pretty decent, so we'll reelect him." Only those who campaigned as moderates or moderate liberals, then discard the sheep's clothing and get on the news might be dumped. There will probably only a half a dozen of those, depending on how well the MSM cover for them.

#11 there are already Donk turf fights today among "who put us over the line". The big tent for the Donks won't contain the egos and turf wars. Enjoy.

#12 Just showing how unserious the dems are about the war.

So, appointing Hastings is the new way?

Flubbies should start snarking, that's all they have left.
