Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz considers Nancy Pelosi a mentor and role model and, in many ways, is following in the Speaker’s footsteps.
While it remains to be seen if the Florida Democrat will ever be calling the shots in the lower chamber, there is little doubt she could handle the job.
Wasserman Schultz juggles many positions in the Democratic Party: chief deputy whip; appropriations cardinal; vice chairwoman at the Democratic National Committee; and head of the incumbent-retention program at the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC).
In an interview with The Hill, the 43-year-old lawmaker said she took a page from Pelosi’s (D-Calif.) playbook by “rolling up her sleeves” and “being a give-me-the-ball kind of person.”
Asked if she views Pelosi as a mentor, Wasserman Schultz said, “Oh, definitely. And a role model. We share the same agenda. We come from similar districts. And she blazed a trail that established a model for activism and a model for legislative leadership internally within the caucus that I felt like I wanted to mirror.

Pelosi couldn’t pour sand out of a boot with instuctions on the heel...does this make you feel or what???
Dems are just certifiably crazy. No other explanation.
Enjoy your idol Debbie,cause she will not be in power after November..
Enjoy your idol Debbie,cause she will not be in power after November..
When Miss Nancey loses her gavel in November, what kind of role model is she going to be for ‘Lil Debbie?!?!?!
She has the “bitch” part down pat already.
Is Commissar Debbie in a “safe” district?
Wasserman is a test for Syphillis?
Is there the least possibility that ‘The Hill’ might one day mutate into a responsible outlet for information about our government? On current evidence, the prospects are dim, to say the least.
Then again, given the intellectual limitations Wasserman-Schultz routinely displays coupled with her bureaucratic skills, its clear that, so long as her party is kept out of power, she represents a very limited danger to the republic.
Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz is the exemplification of monkey see, monkey do....in short, if you see your favorite and beloved sacred botoxcow merrily and with due ignorance running off a high cliff, follow. =.=
