It’s official, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is planning to run for another term.

Coy on her plans to date, Washington's top Democrat told C-SPAN’s Steve Scully that she will file for a 17th term.

“Oh, yeah, well I’m not making any political plans right now, but we’ll just take it one day at a time,” the Democrat initially said.

I was hoping that Nancy would give it a rest  -- looks like she's in it until she passes away.

The Washington Examiner's Caitlin Yilek reported this year, "Pelosi is set to become the oldest person in history to hold the speaker’s gavel. The California Democrat will be almost 81 when her term ends, making her a year older than Speaker Sam Rayburn, D-Texas, who died in office less than two months before he turned 80."

   I can only hope this woman suffers the same demise.  She has outlived her usefulness, IMHO.

If I found Pelosi floating in my pool, I'd punish my dog.
