Democratic Rep. Joseph Crowley (N.Y.) seemed to compare House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D., Calif.) to Roman dictator Julius Caesar on Sunday in a radio interview.

"If we were living during the Roman Empire, she would be a centurion's centurion. In fact, I think she'd be Caesar," Crowley told radio host John Catsimatidis on AM 970 in New York.

"She's a tough cookie and she's a great strategist as well," Crowley said.

Crowley, the House Democratic Caucus chairman, made his statement when Catsimatidis asked him about

Pelosi isn’t Caeser. Not even close.

She would be some craven, suck-up Senator wiping his @ss and stabbing people in the back to protect her own wealth and influence.

Caesar created a lot of enemies on his side like Pelosi has.

Caesar, the Ides of March and then “Et tu, Brute? Then fall, Caesar!”

She’s like Caesar? She killed 1,000,000+ Gaul civilians in a military campaign centered around political ambitions?

No, that is more Merkel’s province.

Polling Shows Nancy Pelosi ‘Toxic’ In Districts Democrats Hoping To Flip!

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D., Calif.) is overwhelmingly unpopular in many of the districts that Democrats are hoping to flip in 2018, according to internal polling data released by a top Republican super PAC.

The newly released data from the Congressional Leadership Fund justifies its strategy for special elections in both Montana and Georgia, where the Democratic candidates were bombarded with ads tying them to Pelosi.

In Montana, where Rob Quist was called “Pelosi in a cowboy hat,” the minority leader had a 59 percent unfavorable rating, and in Georgia, where Jon Ossoff was labeled “San Francisco’s congressman,” she had a 56 percent unfavorable rating, according to the CLF poll.

Polling found that Pelosi is similarly “toxic” in nine additional districts that were included in the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee’s list of 2018 targets released earlier this year.

I would think Lucius Sergius Catilina would be a more apt comparison.

The “Caesar” she is referring to is the one more generally referred to as “Caligula.”

“I think you’d have to be an idiot to think we could win the House with Pelosi at the top,” said Rep. Filemon Vela (D-Texas), who supported Pelosi in her last leadership race. “Nancy Pelosi is not the only reason that Ossoff lost. But she certainly is one of the reasons.”

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi is losing support left and...left.

How about Pelosi's fault!

Did you see the other day Maxine Waters tried to have a town hall and Trump supporters gave her grief. She isn’t liked either.

Pelosi thought she was hot stuff before. This must be sending her to egomaniac heaven. She'll fall for it.

Nice work Conway!!

Yeah, her strategy’s got the dems into one hell of a pickle. Wish the dems had more like her.

I think we may be missing the point. He may be alluding to Ceasar’s end, as a parallel to Pelosi’s future.

Figuratively speaking, naturally.
