Pelosi will seek reelection - eviltoast

The move would extend her 36-year House career and continue to freeze her would-be California successors in a long-standing holding pattern.

    She has too much name recognition and not enough unfavorables for this approach to work. She shouldn’t run and if she wins she’ll be a lucky to be as coherent as McConnell by the end, but I don’t think a primary challenge will work against her. Hope I’m wrong.

      I don’t think a lot of that name recognition is positive… As we’ve seen in the last few election cycles being a well known establishment candidate isn’t necessaroly a positive for a large block of voters.

      Then she should be elected.
