I can talk about my issues with Pelosi but really it is a different topic, but quickly, I do disagree with how far left she is, I can agree on compromise but she has rarely offered any compromise. Which is why I feel that she is a bad choice now since I do not know if she will be willing and able to work with the new leadership in the house.

As well outside of policies, I have issues with how she handled corruption in the house. She on purpose left all the hearings on Rangel until after the elections. I know that is a political thing to keep the seat, and they will now try to get the case done and settled before Republicans take control, but it disgusts me.

I also hate the blame the past administration attitude she has. Everyone can always keep blaming someone, she has been an elected official since I believe 1987, she has been speaker since 2007, she is part of the past as well. I feel that all of them need to accept some blame and work looking forward and not backwards and stop trying to spin everything.

I can talk about individual policies, my opinion on having a health care bill that no one even fully understood voted on and shoved down the throats of Americans before it can be fully analyzed and evaluated. I wish they had slowly voted on piece by piece of the bill and slowly enacted it and see how the affects so they can adjust it.

But to me this thread is not about her issues, it is the fact that the People did speak this election and said overwhelmingly that they disagreed how the House of Representatives was doing their job. That is all under Nancy Pelosi leadership. Yes she was not voted out, but she should take it as a reproach on what the people want, this country is a Republic. And if the Democratic Party puts her back in some ways it may hurt them more. That is my personal thought.
