Hi James,

Could you include a link to one of those clearly stated views, answers and policy postions please? I've not found them since searching after your earlier post.

Thanks,

Nancy Pelosi basically represents here constituency of San Franciso's 8th District: Left-leaning, gay-friendly and cross-cultural.

Some of that background may be of use brokering deals between the factions but certainly there would be much pressure on her to keep the messages moderate so the Democrats may fight the Presidentials from the centre.

These years of Prsident Bush have focussed minds too greatly on a single figure perhaps: Just because she's coralling the cats doesn't mean they'll be meowing to her tune.

The opinion polls closing up shouldn't faze hopeful Democrats too greatly as it's typical as the day approaches. If anything it may motivate those assuming a slam dunk (and we know how reliable those are, don't we George).

Whatever the results, my worries are that these Midterms will be the anti-Bush catharsis swinging voters are asking for and they'll return to the plainer messages of the Republicans for the Presidentials and, should the Democrats win both House and Senate, the lauching of investigation gridlock will not only distract eyes from the ongoing death but also tar US politics so thoroughly voters will stay away in droves 2008.

But on with the race...
