I think Pelosi pushed for Murtha because it was Hoyer that she beat out for the leadership position a few years back.

From what I have heard, she and Hoyer did not have a very good working relationship because of that.

Yall know I'm a conservative, but seriously, democrats are simply terrible at politics. The verdict is still out on policy, but in the few days they've been in pseudo-control, they've shown they need Carville to come in and teach a National Politics 101 seminar.

As Keith Olbermann pointed out on Countdown last night, how come Trent Lott beating Lamar Alexander for Senate Minority Leadership is a remarkable comeback for him and something to celebrate, but Hoyer beating Murtha is Democratic infighting?
