A pair of House Democrats publicly called on Speaker Nancy Pelosi to step down from the leadership Thursday and others suggested the same privately, as the California Democrat hunkered down in the Capitol to mull over her future.
Pelosi made no public appearances as speculation swirled as to whether she would run for minority leader following the largest midterm rout in more than 70 years.

Despite the euphoria of keeping Harry Reid, liberals still fear Rand Paul possibly forcing the entire Senate to kneel before a false idol instead of B. Hussein Obama.
With any luck, liberals' inordinate fear of Aqua Buddhism being on the march in the Senate will convince Harry Reid to stay home cowering while we repeal ObamaCare.
Say, what is all this irrational liberal fear of Aqua Buddha, anyway? Part of the reason that facts and science and argument don't seem to be winning the day is because libbies are hard-wired not to always think clearly when they're scared of inanimate objects, like guns. (In fairness, liberals only fear guns in the wrong hands -- law-abiding citizens.)
While we're on the subject of delusion, Democrats insist they lost 64 House seats, six (maybe 7) Senate seats, 682 legislative seats, 19 state legislatures, 8 governors, 17 of 26 races for state secretary of state and over half the races for state attorney general . . . because of a failure to communicate. After 500 million speeches, voters were not aware of the Democrats' deeply unpopular "achievements".
Speaking for the calm, low-key, moderate and temperate wing of the Democrat Party, Rep. Alan Grayson complained that Democrats were booted because they weren't more like Alan Grayson who's careful never to say anything sane. And careful never to run a truthful ad. Grayson referred to his Republican challenger affectionately as "Taliban Dan," who returned the favor on Tuesday by trouncing Grayson. (Grayson is so vile and hideous, he appears on MSNBC regularly.)
During his not-mea-culpa presser Wednesday, Obama insisted he took a shellacking because people don't feel the progress of his failed policies yet. (I shook my Slurpee in anger at the TV!)
With the jobless rate stuck at over 9.4% for 19 months (Bush did it), zillions of foreclosures (Bush) and mountains of debt piling up on Obama's watch (Bush), you might not have noticed all the progress, such as __________. And don't forget ________________!
After bailing out Wall Street, burning through a trillion 'stimulus' bucks, nationalizing banks, health care and the car industry, Obama blames the wrong decisions he 'had to' make on his predecessor. At his presser, Obama sounded so delusional (more than usual), the wonder was the press chaps' strange intent on getting an 'explanation' for Tuesday from him. You don't go to Alan Grayson for sound campaign advice and you don't go to Obama to explain Republican tsunamis. (Unless you're the media.) Anyone thinking the historic creaming the Democrats got at the ballot box was because voters just wanna tweak ObamaCare is in the middle of De Nile without a paddle.
Obama fancies himself a "transformational" leader, and indeed he's transformed the Democrat House into a Republican House so nicely and just in time for post-census redistricting which should lock the Democrats safely out of a majority for at least a decade. And if that's not change you can believe in . . .
Anyway, that's...

And we all want you to keep right on doing what you’ve done so far. From the bottom of our hearts, Barry, thank you for giving us the keys to drive America’s bus again! Your work on our behalf has been outstanding. We love you for all your efforts to give conservatism a seat at the table again.
She's just perfect.
I’m rather fond of her. I hope she never does go away.
I disagree adamantly with others hoping Pelosi stays on in some leadership capacity. This nazi has help to extensively damage our nation and will continue and if in a leadership position, she will still pursue more damaging legislation. The fight is going to be bad enough, why saddle the Republicans with this witch and make it even more brutal.
The *itch needs to go. Reduce/diminish her as much as possible.
She should stay.
We need to keep her right where she is so she is a permanent reminder of what voters will get if they vote the Democrats back in again.
She’s perfectly wrong. I prefer to see her slink off into oblivion, but God knows best about such things.
John, Great stuff as usual.

On this point, Grayson might be right. His insane rants mobilize the insane base of the DemonRAT party. Then again, I don’t know what it would do to the DemonRATS that pretend to be sane.
I want her subpoenaed and on the stand for her statements that the CIA lied to Congress. She was protected then, now, not so much. C’mon Darrell Issa.
“I disagree adamantly with others hoping Pelosi stays on...”
She cannot do a thing for the next two years as minority leader...but she could be Speaker again if the Reps blow it again and lose the House. That’s probably what she’s thinking. But overall, as long as she’s in a leadership position, she’s fair game to any Republican that wants to win.
That’s certainly a good way to look at it. LOL
