The beginning of the end for Nancy Pelosi?

[WestVirginiaRebel]

NY Post:

No one in Washington much cares what House Democrats do these days. House rules tend to ensure that the main job of members of the minority is to show up, vote “no” and lose.

And in the next Congress, Democrats will have fewer House seats than they’ve had since 1930.

So not much notice was directed last week at Nancy Pelosi’s first major intraparty defeat since she became House Democratic leader in 2003.

Pelosi won that post by defeating colleague Steny Hoyer and has been winning fights ever since. Until now.

That defeat was the election by the Democratic Caucus of New Jersey’s Frank Pallone to be ranking minority member of the Energy and Commerce Committee over Pelosi’s choice, California’s Anna Eshoo.

The election was conducted by secret ballot, and the vote was 100-90.

The beginning of the end? One can only hope.
