Politico has a pretty stunning quote about House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) from a fellow House Democrat, following Tuesday's big Georgia special-election loss:
I think youd have to be an idiot to think we could win the House with Pelosi at the top, said Rep. Filemon Vela (D-Texas), who supported Pelosi in her last leadership race. Nancy Pelosi is not the only reason that Ossoff lost. But she certainly is one of the reasons.
Yikes. That's a brand of criticism you don't even generally see from any fellow Democrats much less ones who voted for Pelosi for leader. Clearly feelings are a little raw after Tuesday night.
Something big needs to change if Pelosi doesn't voluntarily step down. The party took a step in that direction in November when nearly one-third of them (63 in total) voted against her for leader the most ever. And now Vela's comments suggest the opposition might be growing.
We shall see.
