Despite all our efforts we still did not get rid of Nancy and Harry. And they are going to push for some more items on their agenda through this lame duck session. There is no end to their devious tactics. They take advantage of every door they can get their foot in. So heads up, especially they know we are busy with holiday season. Folks the battle is far from over.
Nancy defeated Heath Schuler of North Carolina in a vote 150-43. It was a long closed door session and it was contentious to say the least. Many of the party argued they needed a new leadership. The party to say the least is not well connected and a sharp division could occur. Nancy is going to have trouble keeping everyone in line as many of the Dems now have their eyes and ears opened. Rep. Alley Boyd said "The truth is she is the face that defeated us in this election."
Others say it was the bad economy and high unemployment.
Although her power is diminished she is still carrying the banner for the liberal Dems and I don't see any change in her stands. I doubt President Obama will change much either even though he is trying to meet with the Republicans. I am not sure how far the olive branch will be extended. I don't see him changing much on the Bush tax cuts. Of course he has to pay for his stimulus package somehow. Taking the turkey off our table and replacing it with chicken.
In one interview she showed "no" remorse for the Dems who lost their seats. She said "coldly and defiantly" it was worth it to get the Health Care Bill through. She is one tough bird. You wouldn't want her on your thanksgiving table.
