June 13, 2006--Speaker Pelosi? If Democrats succeed in taking
back the House in the November 2006 mid-term elections, Rep. Nancy Pelosi
(D-CA) will become Speaker of the House. She vowed "on the very first
day, we will pass a reform package, Honest Leadership, Open Government,
to make the most corrupt, closed Congress in history the most open and
honest Congress in history." Pelosi labeled the war in Iraq "a grotesque
mistake" and focused the latter half of her speech on that subject.
