Alexandra Smith: Pelosi Has Become the Face for What People Dislike About the Democratic Party

EXCERPT: 

SMITH: "We at America Rising are guilty as charged for asking some of those people whether or not they're going to support Nancy Pelosi. The reason why our trackers in the field are asking that question is because it is that lightning rod issue. She has become the face for what people dislike about the Democratic Party and the Democratic leadership. Not just among Republicans but among Progressives as well. She’s not as far to the Left as some of them would like her to be. And so I think for Pelosi, look no further than the Ohio 12 where we had the Democratic candidate, Danny O’Connor, he said repeatedly in his campaign ads and in public statements that he wasn’t going to support her. He goes to Washington for one day, on the set of the MSNBC show he says 'I’ll support the eventual Democratic leader', who could be Nancy Pelosi. His reversal in such a close race, you have to think it made a little bit of difference."
