Nancy, its up to you
Nancy Pelosi has it in her power to bring order where there has been chaos, health where the nation has been sick. She has the chance to bring what I believe may end up being the most historically significant contribution of any woman to our nations prosperity.

I think at this moment I trust her to do the right thing more than anyone else in Government. I hope my trust is not misplaced.

1. She is much better then Reid.
Not sure that says much but I have had no issues with her in the last year or so.

2. It doesn't need to be and it shouldn't be...but I think she is the one to save it
my first choice to save it seems to be focused on banking today.

3. What can she do?
Pelosi can't do anything unless she gets at least 217 House Democrats to agree with her. And getting Democrats to agree is not easy (hence, this message board).

6. Yes, in fact I suspect she has watched this debacle with same horror as the rest of us
And every day it becomes more and more apparent, if something good, anything good, is to come out of this she will have be the one to pull the plow.

5. Yes. And let me add that she ask a "Gang of 7 senators" to help:
Boxer, Brown(OH), Mikulski, Kerry, Franken, Sanders, and Menendez. Then go kick some ass with a reconciliation package.
