Pelosi says it may take a woman to clean up House

[cynatnite]

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Nancy Pelosi stands to make life much tougher for President Bush if the November 7 elections net her a powerful job that puts her just two steps behind him.

The 66-year-old California liberal stands to become the first woman to lead the House of Representatives if she and fellow Democrats win control of the chamber from Bush's Republicans.

She vows to ensure Congress acts as an equal to the most powerful man in the world.

Often ignored or even mocked by Bush during his six years as president, Pelosi, now the House Democratic minority leader, told Reuters in an interview: "If we are in charge, he'll have to listen."

2. Can't clean it up

if you can't move the dirt. I'm not talking about sweeping the crimes against the constitution under the rug.
