According to news reports, opponents of Minority Leader Pelosi claim she will not be Speaker. This is from Roll Call:
Massachusetts Rep. Seth Moulton, one of the leaders of a small Democratic contingent opposing Nancy Pelosi’s bid for speaker, said Tuesday he is “100 percent confident” the group has enough commitments to block the California Democrat from being elected speaker on the floor.
The anti-Pelosi group has been gathering signatures from new and returning members on a letter that calls for new Democratic leadership. It also notes that the signatories will not back Pelosi during the January floor vote for speaker.
Moulton suggested they already have enough signatures to prevent Pelosi from getting 218 votes but declined to specify exactly how many.Well, let's see what happens when they officially over in early January.............Read more
My Take - Well, I find this interesting since I think the Republicans want Pelosi as Speaker. She's the gift that keeps on giving, and all members of the House vote for the Speaker. Well, we'll see but if I was a betting man I would bet on Pelosi.
