The group of Democrats who have indicated opposition to Nancy Pelosi’s bid to be speaker of the House are proposing that Pelosi — and other House leaders — limit their next terms to four years, rather than serving indefinitely, Politico reported.
The deal would allow Pelosi, along with Reps. Steny Hoyer (MD) and James Clyburn (SC) the chance to serve three terms as leaders and a fourth if they’re elected with the support of two-thirds of the caucus. That means the terms the three served when they had the majority from 2007 to 2011 would count as part of their leadership stint.
It is unclear if Pelosi or others would agree to the deal, but the offer emerged after days of private talks between Pelosi and her dissenters, according to Politico.
Every anti-Pelosi should be asked the same question: “who do you support,then?”
It’s not enough to simply be against someone, you have to be for someone.
Instead of looking for some ridiculous pledge, how about building someone up who can take the reins when they are ready?
FFS how about some names? Oh, let’s go to Politico,
Little did I know I’ve been migrated to Context-Free Prime.
And these morons are part of the reason the Dems “can’t have nice things.” “Nice things” like a caucus that’s focused in its efforts to undo Shitgibbon’s damage and destruction.
I trust Nancy’s abilities to get things done, but Moulton et al. should focus their efforts on something useful, rather than trying to hamstring her…
Dear Group,
Nancy Pelosi is 78. Nature just might limit her term to 4 years (god forbid). Plus, you’ve only got two on your plate right now. How about you focus on that?
If these people can’t keep a united front, they need to get fired our the door.
