She should have stepped down and let Steny Hoyer take over a long time ago. The plus side is more donations flood into Republican coffers every time she opens her mouth!

Incidentally, the only reason Pelosi has remained in power so long is because she is such a good fundraiser for Dems.

The Dem's will not take back the House with Pelosi at the helm. She is toxic to swing voters and in many of these red/purple-leaning districts that we need to win back the House. Becerra would be a fresh face and far less controversial than her.

So is Boehner, but I don't see that stopping people from voting Republican.

Far more ads connect Dems to Pelosi than Republicans to Boehner.  Usually the "tea party" attack is more common against them.  Boehner is fairly anonymous for a speaker.

It's Rasmussen, but they have Boehner at 28-60 and Pelosi at 35-56.

I'm sure if Pelosi were speaker right now, those numbers would be flipped.
