Pelosi's Pick Rejected Crack In Her Grip?

Why after losing so many seats in the House with a former Speaker who incites

The Blues would vote for her as Minority Leader would keep inquiring minds up all night

She has ruled her party with an iron fist and quashed any dissent

But when the smoke cleared all she could do is deny why against the Blues the election went

So it is refreshing that her rank and file are starting to show signs of revolt

Refusing to elect her choice for a plum chair in a secret vote

One would hope that the drubbing against Reid

Might prompt some  independence from Reid that the Senate on both sides needs

Keystone needs not just sixty votes but 7 more

To overcome Obama’s threatened veto if it passes on the Senate floor

Pallone the new minority chair on energy is not is the shadow of the Bay Area Greens

Maybe he can help his fellow Blues from the War on Fossil Fuels be weaned
