Pelosi Jumps Off the Fence

While the Democratic primary raged on and on and on, something that felt as long and grueling as sitting through the latest Indiana Jones movie-- twice in a row, and almost as painful-- two of the big questions were whom homegirl Nancy Pelosi supported (supposedly she was an Obamamaniac) and when she, along with the rest of the Democratic leadership, were going to get off their asses and end the damn thing.

Now that the race is over (we think) and a nominee has been officially named (we think), Nancy has finally made her move and made her first attempt at ending the damn thing. First she made an official statement declaring Obama the winner and asked all Democrats to rally around him (hint...hint). Later, she, along with Harry Reid and Howard Dean, asked all the remaining scaredy-cat super-dels to hope aboard the Hope Train by Friday and support Barry Hussien by Friday. She did not, however, go the full way and ask Hillary to concede, saying that Hillary in essence needs her space, but we’re thinking (hoping) that if Hillary doesn’t soon, she might be asked to go on a little fishing trip on Lake Tahoe.
