Deficit reduction? Job creation? In defeat, Nancy Pelosi is not abandoning her devotion to making surreal statements, insisting that she's proud of her record on economic issues.

... she has made no decision about whether remain as leader of the House Democrats, but, she said, she has been broadly encouraged to stay and will begin feeling her caucus out tonight. "I've gotten a positive response, but I haven't gone to a place where I've made a decision about that," she said.

I fear a Speaker's job is never done - even when she's no longer Speaker!
