WASHINGTON — Democratic US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, the first woman to hold the powerful post, ruled out Thursday any future plans to run for the White House.

At a press conference with reporters and children on "Take Our Daughters And Sons To Work Day," Pelosi had been asked whether she would ever run for president given her years of political experience.

"No. I love the job that I have," said the speaker, who is behind only Vice President Joe Biden in the US order of succession.

"I believe that one of the reasons that I do it with the success that I have is that my members know that I am here for them, for the House of Representatives, and I'm not thinking of another career path for myself," she said.

LOL -— This turd actually thinks that’s a possibility, not sure what the smoke in SF but but got to be really strong and nasty.

I think she can pretty much rule out the speakership as well.

Pelosi knows she wouldn’t stand a snowball’s chance in hell of ever getting elected president even with the lame street media on her side.

Somehow I doubt that Obama was too scared of a challenge from 70 year old Nancy Pelosi.

“She would get maybe three votes and a hanging chad”

And she might very well win with that if the voter fraud and intimidation continue to be promoted by the left.

LoL!!!!!!! Great belly laugh to start my day. I'm announcing I'm not running either although I'd have a better chance of actually getting elected than Plastic Face would.

Ms. Pelosi might be successful in a bid for the White House.

She would have all those brilliant, enlightened, really, really smart, superior independents to elect her in a landslide along with hardcore progressives.

/s/

IMHO

Its only too bad for us that this tool doesn’t run for President.

It would only be a dream come true.

By the time we finished with her there would be more Libertarians in Government than DemocRATs.
