They should go left to find the next minority leader. Maurice Hinchey would be an interesting choice. Kucinich would be ballsy as fuck. Pelosi was a good choice at one time, but the right is going to target the minority leader whether he/she is "leftist" or not, so they might as well choose someone of consistent conviction who is unwilling to compromise with people who are demonstrably wrong. We need a progressive powerhouse, a liberal superhero. I like Nancy Pelosi, but she's not that person.
