Hoyer beats Murtha

Who's Sorry Now?

NOT Nancy Pelosi, Speaker of the House. No, sireee. She's just fine with it. Murtha will be loyal no matter what, Hoyer is a perfectly good choice for Majority Leader, and all is well.

Don't buy into the "Demo fight" talk....pure talkshow fodder. Hey, they've forgotten how to interview Dems and and still flailing around looking for talking points....pay no attention to them.

Nancy appears to be just fine, thanks.

SFG The victory by Rep. Steny Hoyer of Maryland over Pelosi's old friend and fellow Iraq war foe Rep. Jon Murtha of Pennsylvania wasn't even close, despite the speaker-to-be's strenuous efforts for her candidate over the past five days.

The Democratic caucus voted 149-86 for Hoyer.

"Let the healing begin,'' Pelosi told reporters after she and the House Democrats new leadership lineup emerged from a 2 1/2 hour closed-door caucus meeting.
