Will Nancy Pelosi be Speaker by the end of the year?

I'm sure you've all seen the political whirlwind she's trapped in.  It's a credibility issue and she'll become a liability to her caucus.  Speaker Hoyer by 2010?

Yesterday's press conference was a nightmare, though I had to laugh at most of it.  Intrade has opened up a market for this btw.

Murtha and Rangel are in more hot water from a legal perspective but Nancy's political drama is far more compelling and has already garnered infinitely more attention from the press.  It's a credibility/leadership issue rather than a legal one.  Plus if Murtha or Rangel were ever Speaker while their scandals were unfolding they'd likely be gone already.
