I love Nancy Pelosi. Three years ago I did not love Nancy Pelosi, because
Edited on Sat Mar-27-10 08:01 PM by Mike 03
I thought she made a terrible tactical mistake taking impeachment of GWB off the table.

But since then, she has totally earned my respect. I told my parents last week that I thought she could and should be our first woman President. She is so classy, so brilliant, so compassionate, that I hope she goes down in history.

Sorry for blabbing on, but I am so grateful to Nancy Pelosi, and so happy that she is so gifted and was able to accomplish something that nobody in her shoes has ever been able to accomplish.

God Bless You Nancy Pelosi.

7. Held impeachment back and held single-payer back. No, I'm not happy with her.
I still her as the problem.

4. Um, you better check your math.
Actually she will be 76.5.

But if you're proposing her as a presidential nominee in 2016, yeah, I'd go along with that.

Even though I will be 75 myself.

6. OOPS!--I was thoughtlessly counting from this year, not 2012.

I wasn't proposing her as a candidate, but suggsting to the other poster that her age might make her an inappropriate candidate in 2016.

8. Not prosecuting war crimes is not a "tactical mistake".

9. It's amazing how you guys go back and forth on her.
Not long ago everyone on DU wanted her gone, along with Reid. The vilification was toxic.

Now, because you got what you wanted this time, you love her. If she does something you don't like in the future, you will hate her and call her the B-word or (in your mind) the C-word.
