Acually, on Fox today, he ducked the question when asked if he would vote for Pelosi.

But there are some very interesting ironies here:

1) The Dems would appear to be "cutting off their noses to spite their faces." However, Herron is likely to gain 1000% more than he loses in this deal. Is this the Dems' plan, to have candidates pretend to hate Pelosi, and then have the party retaliate to reinforce his "anti-Pelosi" stance?

2) Note that Pelosi herself is happy to see Dem congresscrooks attacking her (so they can vote for her if they are elected. See 1).

More kabuki. He’ll vote for Pelosi if re-elected. The message ought to be that the one sure-fire way to make sure that a representative is not a puppet of Pelosi is to vote GOP.

Democrat Roy Herron, pictured here in his new office, when asked about Ms. Pelosi only mumbled almost incoherently something about a Swingline stapler:

See post #1. I wonder if this is all a coordinated Dem masquerade.
