House Democrats keep Nancy Pelosi as their leader

WASHINGTON -- House Democrats have re-elected Nancy Pelosi as their leader in the next Congress.

The closed-door vote Wednesday will let the California congresswoman shift from House speaker to minority leader in January, despite concerns by some Democrats that the party needs new leadership after suffering huge midterm election losses.

Pelosi has refused to take the blame and pinned party's losses on stubbornly high unemployment.

Democrats also quelled a power struggle between lieutenants Steny Hoyer of Maryland and James Clyburn of South Carolina, who vied to be Pelosi's second-in-command. Hoyer was poised to be the Democrats' vote-counting whip, and Clyburn will serve in a newly created position as the House's No. 3 Democrat.

If they pass the Dream Act, I swear to god, I will make Nancy Pelosi the House Speaker in 2012.

Good news. Pelosi should run for President.

and first woman president in 2016

How will you do that?

^^ By voting for her duh! jk

Don't worry about it, the important thing is that I will!

We will not be able to vote by 2012 if DREAM passes now. 6 years must pass at least, remember?

Unless the law changes.
