Nancy Pelosi toasts Debbie Wasserman Schultz

Top Democrats turned out tonight to celebrate Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz on the publication of her new book, For the Next Generation: A Wake-Up Call to Solving Our Nation's Problems.

House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi gave a toast of "gratitude for her great leadership, her imagination, her integrity, her idealism" as a crowd looked on from the Capitol Hill home of Sen. Mary Landrieu.

Earlier Jim Messina praised the Floridian for her work on behalf of President Obama's re-election and as chairwoman of the DNC.

Among the lawmakers in attendance: Reps. Steny Hoyer, Ted Deutch, Joe Garcia, Rosa DeLauro.

Wasserman Schultz invoked the Hebrew phrase tikkun olam, which means repairing the world, and said she had made that a career choice.

"We grew up, us 40-something-year-olds, in the 80s, a very consumption orientated me-generation in which most of our friends chose the path of rising up the corporate ladder, making as much money as humanly possible. Not that there's anything wrong with that. It was really important for me that I wake up every day and be able to help with other people's lives."

She said she wrote the book for the next generation of leaders confronted with issues from health care to immigration.

She now has a way that Unions, PACs and high roller donors can funnel money directly to her. Just buy hundreds/thousands of her book..

It’s a Democrat Staple of Bribery.

“as a crowd looked on from the Capitol Hill home of Sen. Mary Landrieu.”

As a resident of Louisiana, I am relieved to see that “Proud Mary” lives in relative DC squalor. Gotta be tough a a paltry senators’ salary.

They cleaned her up for "Vogue" magazine last year. Why she didn't stick with it is anybody's guess.

For the Next Generation: A Wake-Up Call to Solving Our Nation’s Problems.

I could have written the same book in one line.

Vote out all Democrats.
