Top-level members of President-elect Donald Trump's transition team celebrated Democrats choosing to keep Nancy Pelosi as House minority leader, a decision that came after bruising losses for the party in this year's general election.
Pelosi, who has been in Congress for 30 years and led House Democrats for the past 14, faced a challenge from Ohio Rep. Tim Ryan, who said the party needed new leadership after Hillary Clinton's shocking loss to Trump in the general election. The House and Senate are also controlled by Republicans.
Some top Republicans seemed happy with the continuation of the status quo for Democrats.
"What a relief," top Trump adviser Kellyanne Conway, who was his campaign manager, tweeted Wednesday. "I was worried they had learned from the elections & might be competitive and cohesive again."

I love Kellyanne!!! She says EXACTLY what all of us are thinking- but so much more pithy!! :)
To: blam
The Dems just don’t learn, do they? Tim Ryan is young, handsome, personable, and articulate, exactly what the tired, worn-out Democrat party needs to resurrect itself, but do they have the intelligence to seize their opportunity? No, of course not. Let’s all hope they stay this stupid!
