>"Democrat Pelosi urges end to race

Nancy Pelosi, the speaker of the US House of Representatives, has urged a swift end to the Democrats' contest to nominate a presidential candidate.

Mrs Pelosi, a senior Democrat, told ABC News it was important to get behind one candidate if the party expected to win the White House in November.

A number of supporters of Barack Obama have been calling for his rival Hillary Clinton to concede the race.

Mrs Pelosi did not say which candidate she preferred......"<

1. Wasn't there a post today claiming she said the race needs to run its course?

Which is it, I wonder.

2. I responded to that post earlier.

It was from an AP article and she really took a jump back from her earlier statements on the matter. She seems to be saying now that it should just run it's course.

So which Newsclip is the truth? I'm confused.

12. I think Pelosi is trying to have it both ways...

Apparently the Clinton donors who wrote that threatening letter made an impression.

5. Obama said let her stay in... then let her stay in...

Pelosi hasn't been much of a Democrat lately, she should stay out of it.


And that's coming from an Obama supporter..

6. She's done okay on FISA lately

But you're right, for the most part, not much changed when we retook the house.

10. Yeah and I expect she'll do much better with a Dem in the WH

but I was pretty disappointed in her and Reid's leadership.
