House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., used President Barack Obama's 100th day in office and the House of Representative's passage of the federal budget Wednesday to once again blast congressional Republicans as the party of "No."
But the San Francisco Democrat offered a novel suggestion for solving the problem of an uncooperative House and Senate GOP brain trust: have mainstream Republican voters revolt against them.
"By and large, I say to Republicans 'Take back your party ...'" Pelosi told reporters before one of her press aides shouted "Last question!" But Pelosi added: "If I may go one step further, I would say our country needs a strong Republican Party ..."
"Not too strong," Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., interrupted.
