House Democrats “didn’t get the message” from last Tuesday’s election if they re-elect Nancy Pelosi as Democratic Party leader next year, the expected No. 2 Republican in the House said Sunday.
Rep. Eric Cantor, R-Va., told “Fox News Sunday” that Pelosi’s decision to run as the party’s No. 1 suggests Democrats aren’t listening to voters who rejected the Obama administration’s agenda.
“If Democratic members in the House elect Nancy Pelosi as their leader, it’s almost as if they just didn’t get the message from the voters this election. I mean, the voters outright rejected the agenda that she’s been about,” he said. “I mean this is the woman who really, I think, puts ideology first, and there have been no results for the American people. And that seems the direction they want to take again. It just doesn’t make sense.”
