Bring it on, says Pelosi

Speaker Nancy Pelosi has a message for Republicans this fall: Bring it on.

A buoyant Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Wednesday basked in the Democrats’ special-election triumph while bashing Republicans and expressing confidence that her party will retain control of the House.

In an interview with The Hill, the Speaker said it was very important to her that Democrats retain the late Rep. John Murtha’s (D-Pa.) seat, which they did Tuesday night.

Pelosi, who was very close with Murtha, said Republicans once again tried to nationalize an election by way of an “anti-Obama, anti-Pelosi” message.

“It didn’t work,” Pelosi said, calling the strategy Republicans have employed regularly in recent years “predictable.”

Asked about House Minority Leader John Boehner’s (R-Ohio) recent claim that there are 100 House seats in play, Pelosi responded, “Let him think that.”

and Reid for not standing up to the Republicans?

It seems to me that has changed a lot. I'd like to think they have learned they cannot cooperate with the current crop of Republicants.

case.

including myself went through a serious period of doubt about both Reid and Pelosi.

Would vote.

The networks should allow her 15 minutes to address the Nation before all major programs.

She will then explain to the electorate what the real truth is.

I don't think we can survive without our Democratic people being given airtime.
