And I think some House candidates have either said they don't agree with her or hedged, but in reality what'll happen is this: Democrats get together and hold an informal vote among just themselves. Pelosi will win this. If the Dem House margin is small: Those candidates who said they were against her will say they voted someone else in that informal vote, but Pelosi won, and they're not going to just not vote for her in the real thing and prevent the House from having a Speaker/have it fall into chaos with calls for vacating the chair, etc. If the Dem margin is a bit healthier: Pelosi lets those people vote against her in the real thing because she doesn't give a **** and has the 218 needed votes elsewhere. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? ...
