Perhaps she is good within the democrat party and does apparent good within their circles. She's obviously won the respect. But it's MORE than just a couple of hundred people involved. They/she represent a LOT of folks, and I simply think this shows they don't get it. I think they should have went with change, that's my non-biased view from afar. My biased view is that now I have to see that ugly face more prominently and that she's an idiot.

House Democrats re-elect Pelosi as leader despite discontent
WASHINGTON (AP) -- House Democrats re-elected Nancy Pelosi as their leader Wednesday, ratifying the status quo in a changing Washington despite widespread frustration over the party's direction.
That disenchantment manifested itself in 63 lawmakers supporting Pelosi's opponent, Ohio Rep. Tim Ryan, in the secret-ballot vote. That was by far the largest defection Pelosi has suffered since she began leading House Democrats in 2002.
Still, the California lawmaker had declared ahead of time that more than two-thirds of the caucus was supporting her, and she won almost exactly two-thirds with 134 votes. It was a testament to her vote-counting skills and to her ability to hang onto power even in dark days for Democrats, as they confront a capital that will be fully controlled by the GOP next year.
