Nancy Pelosi outlines a path to victory for House Democrats in 2020 -- and guarantees it

Barely three months into her second turn in charge, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has already mapped out a plan to overwhelm Republicans in the 2020 elections.

“I’m going to have our races won by this November,” the California Democrat said.

Yes, the House speaker predicted that she will have locked down the majority a full year ahead of schedule, leaving the political battlefield to what she considers an intense presidential race all the way up to November 2020.

It’s a remarkably bold guarantee for Pelosi, who will celebrate this new majority’s 100-day mark at a Democratic retreat later this week outside Leesburg. Her caucus has had its share of growing pains in the first quarter of the year, with younger, more-liberal Democrats trying to push Pelosi’s leadership team as far to the left as possible.

"Self-promotion is a terrible thing but somebody's got to do it."

LOL

Even opponents respect this woman. She's fierce and fearless. And she takes no guff.

We're lucky to have her on our side. It'll be interesting to see if this prediction pans out. If anyone can get it to work, it's Pelosi.
