The effort of some House Democrats to deny Nancy Pelosi the speakership may be trending more whimper than bang.
On Monday, 16 members and members-in-waiting signed on to a letter pledging to vote for “new leadership” in the caucus’s internal elections next week and on the House floor in January. “We are thankful to Leader Pelosi for her years of service to our country and to our caucus,” the letter reads. “However, we also recognize that in this recent election, Democrats ran and won on a message of change … We promised to change the status quo, and we intend to deliver on that promise.”

Aides to representatives who signed on to the effort, however, argued that the letter represents a critical step toward inducting a new speaker. Pelosi, as it stands, can afford to lose 15 votes on the floor, and “with this letter, we’ve shown we have that,” said one staffer who requested anonymity to divulge private conversations. “We’re very confident there’s going to be another candidate.” The source added that many of the ostensibly anti-Pelosi freshmen declined to sign the letter because “they’d rather break the news on their own terms.” The group of signees is still banking that those freshmen will ultimately oppose Pelosi, the staffer said.

So the scramble is to find someone to replace Pelozi - surely there are more than one who could fit the position and bring the desired new blood.

You know she wears a drool-bib when she eats in the capitol cafeteria?

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez or Eric "Nuke" Swalwell. Comedy gold.

They are both mental midgets and left wing kooks. They make Nancy Pelosi look like Einstein. It would be delicious comedy for the next 2 years. They are both representative of what the body of democrats in the HOR have become.

Do you think either one would have enough backing to move her out of position?
