Democratic insurgents hoping to topple House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) lack a key ingredient in their master plan: a formidable challenger.
Pelosi’s detractors have argued for years that Democrats need an image overhaul by empowering newer members at the very top of the party. But they suffered a big setback when Rep. Joseph Crowley (D-N.Y.), thought by many to be Pelosi’s heir apparent, was unseated himself in an astonishing primary defeat earlier this year.

The Democrat Party is 90% Socialist, even Nan. I wager 10% are your "father's Democrat", the rest are Marxist of some sort...all are for big government and corrupt.

Nancy and Chuck will be the reason the DNC will start breaking up in the next few years. After it’s over, there will be 3 or 4 smaller parties and an equal size group going to the RNC, causing problems there that will eventually lead to another party breakup. Having leadership that doesn’t fit, resemble or represent it’s public is going to fail eventually.

It takes someone from the loony far left to defeat the Democrat geriatric leadership. Nancy has already reached this extreme.

If the Rats take the house, the GOP should vote for Pelosi as speaker. She’s the gift that keeps on giving....

“Democrats opposed to Pelosi lack challenger to topple her.”
This surprises me, I expected a dozen or more who would jump at the opportunity to wield such power!

Crowley is still going to be on the ticket in Nov. and it would not surprise me to see him win.
