A close confidant of Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Wednesday rejected a plea from two of his colleagues to delay next week's caucus leadership elections.

Rep. George Miller (D-Calif.), the outgoing chairman of the Education and Labor Committee, said that it's important to get the leadership team in place as soon as possible.

"Overwhelmingly the caucus believes in the talents and the skills of Speaker Pelosi," he said.

He also expressed hope that Hoyer and Clyburn could both remain in leadership and struck a defiant note when backing the Speaker.

"They can boo all they want, we are going to leave the most effective people in the playing field (in charge of our caucus)," he said. "If I was a Republican, I'd be upset she is going to (stay) too."

Damn right!
