Good point, this is the first House race since Mrs. Pelosi was chosen minority leader. She is not the albatross to Democrats that some of us Republicans have been claiming. Unfortunately, the people of the Fifth District of LA do not know Mrs. Pelosi, nor do most know what a "minority leader" is. They chose Alexander as someone who "cares" about them and will "listen" to their problems. I guess young Fletcher found out the hard way that he was running a much too sophisticated campaign for LA. Fletcher is truly the Thune of LA -- right down to the 500-vote margin of defeat.

Nah, It was the sugar thing. Most people don't follow politics past their own pocketbook.

Teddy, you were fretting about a Sanchez victory in Texas, and the fatboy lost by 20 points!

You're a Democrat, no matter what you say.

You just keep thinkin' Pelosi's God's gift to the Democrats.

Yep. Her San Francisco Democrat policies are just what the rest of America wants!
