House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi is regarded by most Republicans as a far-left liberal. But a recent column identifies the San Francisco Democrat as the “most right-wing" candidate running in her district this year.

Emily Cadei, a correspondent for the Sacramento Bee, wrote Monday that Pelosi -- who'll turn 78 on March 26 -- will be forced to fight off three opponents, all coming at her from the left, when she seeks re-election later this year.

This is not the first time Pelosi will face pressure from the left while defending her seat. Her backers point to her track record of turning back other opponents, usually by margins of 70 to 80 percentage points, and see no likely difference this year, Cadei writes.

But this year, Pelosi's opponents appear to be seizing some discord among Democrats, many of whom view Pelosi as a polarizing figure. These rivals are also unhappy with Pelosi's stands on health care and campaign finance, Cadei wrote.

The New York Times recently called Pelosi a “dominant figure” in the party, but after a recent budget vote -- where 73 Democrats joined Republicans in voting for the bill — the Times wondered aloud if Pelosi “may be losing what was once an iron grip.”

Some fellow Democrats also criticized Pelosi last month when she said President Donald Trump’s immigration plan was a blue print to “make America white again."

Cadei’s column notes that Pelosi has recently faced hecklers during public events and has been asked questions about her personal wealth.

Cadei lists a few of Pelosi's challengers. They include:

Stephen Jaffee, 72, an attorney who volunteered for Bernie Sanders’ campaign. He claims Pelosi spends too much time on national politics instead of her district. He also claims Pelosi benefits from wealthy campaign donors and should support single-payer health care bills.

Ryan Khojasteh, 25, a law student who was inspired by the Jon Ossoff failed run in Georgia. He said the race is not about beating Pelosi, but about bringing in a new generation of Democrats.

“I just remember all the headlines the next morning, ‘Handel beats Ossoff after link to Pelosi.’ While we respect all that Pelosi has done, maybe it’s time to pass the torch.”

That's the Dem's new playbook: When you're losing, go even harder left.

Kinda telling when even some of the most liberal Democrats are being labeled as "not left enough".

With any luck the insane asylum escapees will all tear each other apart, split the vote and a rational person sneaks in and gets elected.

To hardened progressives, she is the same as a Republican, a shill for the same banks and industries.

That’s simultaneously funny and insulting

We are officially watching the Democratic party in it's last death throws. It boggles the mind how insane these people are.

Ah, the good old days when the looney left was Pelosi and Feinstein, whats the world coming to. Go ahead and vote her (them) out and we get rid of their seniority - not sure who is next in line for those positions.

Many will remember oily Tom Daschle from back in the day, a too conspicuous ass clown. I rejoiced when he left, welcoming his absence. His replacement? Harry Reid.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Guess that goes along with the old adage, "Be careful for what you wish...you just might get it".

To be fair, the people of SD elected Republican John Thune who is currently the Chair of the Commerce Committee.

The Demonrats elected Reid as majority leader.

If any of her opponents have a chance of beating her I would love to contribute to his/her campaign...

Very true.

You gotta be shittin me.

Trump's greatest gift to America may be flushing the Leftist, Communist, Progressive extreme out of their holes for everyone to see.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Yes...but as noted above, the fear is that said persons will be replaced by EVEN MORE Leftist, Communist, Progressive extremes...

I believe we're starting to see the dems chickens come home to roost. They've created monsters on a number of fronts with the relentless victim narratives and now they're losing control. They'll never be able to go far left enough to appease these creatures so they'll be swallowed up. The monsters they created are turning on them. Nancy is being shouted down at speaking venues.

I wish you were correct. But sadly, I fear not. Let's not forget that Shrillary received the majority of the popular vote.

Years ago, Rush coined the term, "low information voters." It's still true.

True. And it is why they are so desperate to see the flood of Mexicans, Guatemalans, etc. continue and even increase-- it is their only hope to keep getting elected. Rahm Emanuel has started issuing cards to illegal aliens that will allow them to vote in Chicago. His approval is 25%.

(Hillary's majority was because of two states, New York and California, which gave her millions more votes than she needed to carry those states. If there are two commie states in the US, that would be NY and CA.)

Those darn Russians are at it again.

Thank god the Dems have learned nothing from the Trump win.
