Pelosi holds on to leadership post, but Democrats searching for successor

By Seth McLaughlin - The Washington Times - Wednesday, June 28, 2017

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi has weathered yet another round of calls for her ouster, but fellow House Democrats are beginning to look beyond her tenure and cast about for a list of successors.

While her two top lieutenants — Reps. Steny H. Hoyer, 78, and James E. Clyburn, 76 — have been waiting in the wings for a decade, some rank-and-file Democrats are eyeing a new generation of leaders to succeed Mrs. Pelosi, 77.

For now, Democrats say, that timing is entirely up to Mrs. Pelosi.

Baby boom = 1946-1964 births, therefore 53 to 71 yrs. off age. Approximately

Also once described as a "pig in a python" referring to the relative size of the demographic
