Nancy Pelosi is a great leader!

WASHINGTON — The campaign arm of House Democrats has posted its highest off-year August fundraising haul ever, the group told NBC News.

Rep. Nancy Pelosi of California is the Democratic leader and would be in line to return as speaker if Democrats could win back the House.

The DCCC raised $6.26 million in August, compared to $4.15 million for August 2015, the last comparable year before a midterm election. Overall, the DCCC has raised $72.46 million in 2017. And the committee touted its online fundraising, which it says has totaled $31.26 million for the year so far, including $2.4 million last month.

1. Excellent. They are the only ones I will be giving money to from now on.

The DNC can kiss my butt!

2. I think this makes Nancy P. head of the Democratic Party.

Wait, wait, wait... she is a woman.

[leftofcool]

3. Yes, a real Democrat leading the Democratic Party

What a novel idea.

4. I think it does too

Can you believe some were calling for her to be replaced? With a pro-lifer? Oh, yeah, he's a white guy.

14. I don't think there is much danger

of her being replaced. My brother lives in San Francisco. He has always told me that she is very popular and wins her elections by large margins.

A noisy minority will not get in her way.

12. Totally Agree

I can overlook her being a woman

5. She ignores the bullcrap and gets the job done.

6. She is very good at her job

[Wounded Bear]

7. Wait, I thought fundraising was down significantly...

Perhaps it pays to wait until all the facts are in.

8. Sure does!

9. Keep this momentum going

We have to! The Democrats will clean up due to Donald's implosions.

10. She's playing Dump like the proverbial violin

She has a great combination of diplomacy and toughness. I also like the combo of "Nancy and Chuck"

11. That is such great news, mcar!

Nancy is tough, experienced, and one hell of a speaker.

13. She is a badass leader!
