"This letter announcing his intent on being majority leader is just waiting to blow up in his face, as well."
Has anyone come out to rally around this idea if his? Has Pelosi said anything?
Pelosi and Murtha are supposedly close. Dem whip Steny Hoyer's feathers were a little ruffled with the letter. He'd like that position, as well. I don't recall Pelosi saying anything specific, but others have been a little miffed, saying they need to win the house before any decisions are made.
