"But we will not be constrained in our optimism for the future, our enthusiasm for moving forward in a new direction and our determination to win,'' added Pelosi, who unlike many of her colleagues refuses to publicly predict what will happen in the upcoming elections. The San Francisco congresswoman probably would become the first female House speaker if Democrats picked up a net 15 seats on Nov. 7.

This should be the Republican response:

We welcome the Democrats fasting and praying in the desert for America for 40 days. We invite them to join with us in sponsoring a bill that all of us in Washington will fast and pray in the desert for the next 40 days. What say you, Democrats?

If anything Pelosi will stir up the GOP for an election push more than the Democrats.
