Pelosi: Obama should govern from the middle

My question is, why? Why would you want to toe the line esepecially when :

According to projections, Democrats in the House were on track Wednesday to increase their majority by at least 18 seats, a margin that would give the Democratic president-elect a formidable tool to push his legislative agenda after his January 20 inauguration.

When you have been handed a majority, you do not go around pandering to the loons and moderates of the other side. You take your majority and implement your policies. I really hate this attitude by some of the democrats. I mean, here is a golden opportunity to undo the damage done since Reagan, and what does the House speaker say?

“let’s play nice”.

Absolute. Bull. Shit.

Congratulations to Sen. Obama and Sen. Biden on winning the US elections. Great victory for these two condidates. And also congrats to democrates on winning not only the senate but also the house (although there are a couple or races still up in the air).

What I find a little odd is the fact that everyone is referring to Barrack Obama as african-american. But is he not also half white? Why is everyone so focussed on on his “black side”?
