Ryan Opts to Seek Top House Democrat Post

Christian Science Monitor

On Thursday, Representative Ryan declared his intention to challenge incumbent Congressional House minority leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) for the party leadership she has held for 13 years

"We need a leader who can go into all those districts and persuade people who voted for Donald Trump to come back into the Democratic folds. I think I can do that. I know I can do that."

Oh, I'll take this as being Tim Ryan and not Paul. You had me there for a minute!

Yep, I did a double-take, too, thought it was probably a mistake in the title of the article. This is the guy from Akron, I think.

Well, I'm not a democrat, so I think they ought to keep Nancy as Minority Speaker, can't let a good losing streak go to waste, but they would be better off getting fresh blood like this. They are so different from the GOP, Nancy lost the House years ago and is STILL their Speaker. But Keith Ellison as DNC Chair? Um, no.

If Pelosi stays on, I think she'll echo Sanders and Whitman in the Senate. Which will cause even more Democratic losses in the fly over regions. Good night, the Dems might even loose Nevada.

If they keep going the way they have been they will not win anything again. They have overplayed their hand over and over again.
