Sources: Pelosi Says Obama Must Be ‘Perfect’ to Win Again
Roll Call ^ | November 10, 2010 | Steven T. Dennis

Speaker Nancy Pelosi told Democratic leaders Wednesday afternoon that President Barack Obama has to be “perfect” to win a second term, several senior Democratic aides told Roll Call.

Pelosi told leaders on a conference call that Obama will have problems running for re-election because of the loss of governorships in Ohio, Pennsylvania and other states, several aides said. The soon-to-be-ex-Speaker also said House Democrats have many opportunities to take back 25 House seats and win back the majority, aides said.

According to one aide, Pelosi also said she wasn’t sure whether the White House is prepared to deal with a Republican House. A leadership aide denied that Pelosi made such a statement.

Pelosi's spokesman said Wednesday that the Speaker believes Obama will win. "The call was about the lame-duck session, and the Speaker believes that the president will be re-elected in 2012 and has said so on numerous occasions," spokesman Nadeam Elshami said.

BUT EVERYONE ALREADY KNOWS THAT HE’S NOT PERFECT.

IN FACT ... HE’S TOO IMPERFECT.

Is Pelosi trying to argue that NObama is really a one-term President? Just like her, less 4-year Spooker of the House?

HEARTACHE IN LIBERAL WORLD!

PALIN/DEMINT/PALIN 2012!

I guess the perfection was continued today when South Korea told him to go to hell and the ChiComs chastised him for our reckless spending.

Pelosi is a whackjob, IMO. And I think her fellow travelers know it.

He’s a perfect A-hole but I don’t think that is going help.

In 2012, Obama’s campaign slogan will be “I did that on purpose!”

Spending Veteran’s day on foreign soil getting lectured to by our Chinese overlords probably isn’t the dictionary definition of “perfect”.

I can only pray the Republican primary voters aren’t stupid enough to nominate an unelectable candidate. I guess Christine O’Donnell being nominated to go to the slaughter isn’t the worst thing, but nominating someone like her for the presidency would be. And I’m afraid it will happen.

Sounds like the natives are getting a tad restless. They’re kinda, sorta behind this guy but he’s gonna have to clean up his act. Tough being 0 right now.

And oh yeah, the House ain’t coming back in ‘012.
