NANCY IN DISTRESS
House Democrat Leader Nancy Pelosi was talking a tough game about what would happen to Republicans and the Bush Administration if Democrats take back the House in November. She promised major investigations of the President and members of his Administration. She promised more money in homeland security spending, and a roll back of President Bush's prescription drug plan.
Why the tough talk? The results in Ohio, where Democrat pollsters brought back comparatively bad news. Despite record spending for primaries, Democrats barely improved on primary numbers they had in the state back in 2002 for mid-term elections. Nationally, while approval numbers for Republicans edge down into the "teens," Republican turnout has been surprisingly good, and it now appears that several seats targeted by Democrats in Ohio, California, Texas and Florida will not be in their column in November.
"Pelosi's been talking a good game, but her party's numbers aren't holding up," says a Democratic leadership aide who is working behind the scenes to remove Pelosi after the mid-term elections.
In fact, a number of people are working behind the scenes to remove Pelosi. According to congressional sources, her deputy, Democratic whip Rep. Steny Hoyer, and his staff have been making it clear to a number of different business interest groups that they do not support Pelosi's virulently anti-business positions and that they are more than willing to help.
"What comes across is that Hoyer wants Pelosi's job. He knows it will take money to do it and he's reaching out to groups that normally don't have followings in Democratic circles, such as telecom, small businesses and various chamber of commerce groups," says a lobbyist for a manufacturers coalition. "Hoyer's fundraisers are making it clear that his leadership PAC is becoming a good venue to kill two birds with one stone: get our issues heard and work against Pelosi."

Good luck Tony and remember, don't look at Helen Thomas directly or you will turn to stone.
I wondered if there would be a thread like this. Thanks, Save!
All best wishes to Tony Snow as he enters the Lion's Den.
:-) Thanks for the ping, DoughtyOne!
Yikes! Get some rest and we will catch up later :-)
Bwhahahahahaha!
Yo, Tony!
I've admired you so much over the years. I've only wished that I could reach you with some good sense over this immigration thing. I guess that chat is off the table now for the next couple of years. Oh, well...good luck with the new gig.
You're welcome, JennysCool!
We have no idea whether the Snowman will be Lurking, but it can only be a good thing to post this Thread :-)
The Valerie Plame Book Deal
Crown Publishing is going to pay Valerie Plame 2.5 million dollars for writing a book. Geesh, who wants to read her memoirs? Perhaps, they're a spread in Vanity Fair, but a whole book? It makes WuzzaDem's satire of the Joseph Wilson/Valerie Plame "Solitude Tour" even more apt and funny.
I wonder if Plame will address this little tidbit from the Scooter Libby courtroom.Lewis Libby defense lawyer Theodore Wells told a federal judge a short time ago that the Libby defense team has located “five witnesses who will say under oath that Mr. [Joseph] Wilson told them his wife worked for the CIA.”
CHOCOLATE!
Cheers to another Ohio kid who done good. Woof.
Good luck Tony!
We are all praying for your success in the new job.
And also for your continued good health..
Godspeed Tony :-)
Don't forget to throw us a bone once in a while Tony...Best wishes!
Hiya, rdb3! How's it going? :-)
