Pelosi = Obamah

It would be like replacing Obamah after only two years.

The White House would have none of that, even if it meant shoving Clyburn to the back of the bus.

Calvin&Hobbes is truly one of the most brilliant strips ever devised. I wondered reading it regularly decades ago if the author knew my son and his ‘teddy tiger’ stuffed companion!

It will be interesting to see how many Dem Representatives refuse to vote for Pelosi in the formal Speaker vote in January. Now, that the Dems lost control of the House maybe their leadership won’t punish Dems in competitive districts who vote for a Rat other than Pelosi as Speaker.
