Thats is the headline. Thats what the people want. Stenny Hoyer takes over as Speaker of the House.
One way the Democrats could improve their chances to retain the Senate and House this fall is for Nancy Pelosi to resign as Speaker of the House now. Would she give up power a couple of months early to help Democrats retain their majority party status in the house in the next session of Congress? Or will she hold on to the notion she will return in January 2011 as the Speaker of the House?
