Speaker Emerita: Nancy's iPhone

Washington Post has a new profile on Nancy Pelosi's difficult transition back to Minority Leader and ambitions to win back the Speakership. It's basically just an update about a political personality that we already know well. And if the anecdotes about Pelosi's storied personal touch in politicking and her aggressive defense of her record sound familiar, it's because they're vintage Pelosi. The only real news is buried at the end of the story: Pelosi got an iPhone and plays Angry Birds. That, and DCCC fundraising completely dried up during the scandal over Anthony Weiner's predilections for hot, raunchy, and gratuitously political cybersex.
