Nancy Pelosi: Elizabeth Warren doesn't speak for the Democratic PartyBy Nick Gass - Politico

<snip>
Nancy Pelosi is firing back at criticism from Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren and other liberals in the Democratic Party that President Barack Obamas administration has been too soft on Wall Street.
There may have been a couple of people who say that, but that is not the consensus in our party, the House minority leader said in an interview with CNBCs John Harwood published Wednesday. The financial industry doesnt agree with that, she noted.
The comments defending the administration come in the aftermath of last months lengthy intraparty squabble in which Pelosi and other House Democrats fought the White House over the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal and related legislation.
Pelosi also said she did not agree with Warren going after Mary Jo White, Obamas appointee to the Securities and Exchange Commission.
People will express themselves the way they do. That doesnt mean theyre speaking for the party, Pelosi said.

Wrong branch, surely? The House has no one with her skill and allies. Better keep her.
