I almost feel sorry for Ben

Nancy Pelosi just made it 100% clear – she is not going anywhere, and Democrats wanting new leadership are just going to have to deal with it.

Speaking to the Boston Globe, Pelosi said: “I will run for speaker. I feel confident about it. And my members do, too… I have no intention of walking away from that table.”

That certainly makes it awkward for red-state Democrats like Ben McAdams, who may want to present himself as a ‘different’ kind of Democrat, but finds himself in a position of supporting Pelosi’s agenda either way.

“Regardless of Ben McAdams’ words, we know from his actions he will support unrestricted abortion and further attacks on our pro-life values. Ben McAdams’ values are Nancy Pelosi’s values – whether he will say it out loud or not.” – NRCC Spokesman Jack Pandol
