BREAKING NEWS – Washington, D.C. – Ohio Democratic congressional candidate Danny O’Connor has responded to questions about whether he would support Nancy Pelosi for speaker by saying he wanted “new leadership” instead. “I would support whoever the Democrats put forward,” O’Connor boldly stated. Republicans seized on O’Connor’s comments, saying it shows how the Democrat is telling swing voters he would vote against her for speaker – even though he’d support her if the party needed to in order to get 218 votes. He then backed off some of his previous comments he made about Pelosi, including, “Nobody in their right mind would ever vote for that old bat”, and “she’s as ugly as she is stupid.”
