Obama seeks reprise of Speaker Pelosi
President Obama wants to work with congressional Republicans and all that, but he is also making it clear he wants Democrats to re-take control of the U.S. House and re-install Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
"My job is to make sure we move the country forward, and I think we can best do that if Nancy Pelosi is Speaker of the House once again," Obama said Wednesday night during one of two Democratic fundraisers in Pelosi's hometown of San Francisco.
Obama, who spent the night in the city by the bay, has another pair of fundraisers in the area on Thursday before heading back to Washington, D.C.
While Obama outlined an ambitious agenda for his second term -- including gun control, immigration, energy, and climate change -- he also cited the fact that Republicans control half of Congress, the House. The Democrats run the Senate.
