[sktmax]

(05-28) 20:17 PDT San Francisco -- House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says she will step in if necessary to make sure the presidential nomination fight between Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama does not reach the Democratic National Convention - though she believes it could be resolved as early as next week.

1. If only she vowed to push impeachment charges

as much as she has vowed to prevent fight at Democratic convention.

2. ...then the Congress could have done even *less* over the last year and a half!

And then the inevitable acquittal could have handed Bush a major public-relations victory as well! Kickass!

4. Yup. And thank goodness for President Gore.

6. Bullshit, Nancy! You don't have the power

7. right ...the Clintons have it.

9. Really? She's the most powerful Democratic politician at the moment. You don't think

she can lean on SDs to put Sen. Clinton to bed?

14. don't make the mistake of thinking she doesn't have the power.

She is without doubt the most powerful dem in the country.

8. Finally! We get a definitive statement on the end game from Nancy

Game over.

10. Hopefully, other high profile Dems will stand with her about this.

11. She Better

Otherwise, only the Hillbots and McSameAsBushies will be happy.

For the next 4-20+ years, that is ...

[high density]

13. Didn't she also say it ended after Barack got the majority of pledged delegates?

So much for that. I don't trust her words.
