No, she is doing her job. I am proud of her and look forward to her start as speaker in January.

It's too soon to tell. Were you to compare her present decisions to her career stance on a myriad of issues, perhaps a tendency could be assessed. However, she's still swirling in the newness of her leadership role and --in my opinion -- still caught up in the fumes of victory.
Of course she is. That's what she's been told she has to do. What she doesn't realize is that once she alienates her supporters on the left, she's through. When Democrats act like Republicans, they get thrown on the trash heap with the rest.
I think the election results suggest one cannot lean too much toward the center now. We need leaders who can pull us together, not draw us apart.
Nancy Pelosi knows the art of compromise. I trust her to represent an array of people and balance the wants and needs of her varied constituents. She is finding her feet. When she does, she'll use her wings. Give her time.
Who knows? Give it a rest. She hasn't been speaker long enough for anyone to know. We just can't stand not putting people into categories. . . .

Its so disrepectful to post pictures of some halfwit when discussing the Speaker of the house.
This is a propaganda story to give the PERCEPTION that pelosi is somthing other than a hard core communist.
Question: Now that the Nance and her genius intellectual demonrat friends have taken over congress and the Senate, will we stop hearing the cheap shot jokes on the MSM about "no intelligent life in DC?"

wtf does that mean
It means "Can't we all just get along?"
There's a world of difference between Pelosi's present activities and anything remotely resembling "center". She's way, way, WAY out in left field. The woman's crazy.
We can expect the libs to take a stab at appearing more centrist in an attempt to fool as many voters as possible in '08.
"she's still swirling in the newness of her leadership role and --in my opinion -- still caught up in the fumes of victory"
Swirling? Fumes? Sounds like Miz Varner subconsciously associates Speaker Pelosi with circling the toilet bowl.
"Only in San Francisco."
It's scary that there is a place in our country that would ask a question like that about her. I won't be able to sleep tonight.
Liberal admission!
"Leaning to the center" means you're standing pretty far away from "the mainstream" right now, doesn't it?
