WASHINGTON (AP) – A dozen or so House Democrats want Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi to go after a dispiriting loss in a Georgia House election.
They just don’t know how to make it happen.
The frustrated Democrats met in Rep. Kathleen Rice’s office to discuss their options as they face long odds of knocking out the woman who has led the Democratic caucus for nearly 15 years from minority to majority and back, raised tens of millions of dollars and had multiple legislative successes. Their action plan: Keep talking. Keep raising the concern that something needs to change within the ranks of the party’s leadership.
It’s about all they can do.
A defiant Pelosi told reporters that she was “very confident” about the support that she had from fellow Democrats.
