The View-Point

Could Nancy Pelosi be the next Eva Perón?

Here's a novel idea for the Pelosi 2008 Presidential Campaign: 'Evita' Pelosi!

Whereas Evita Perón was "La Santa Peronista," Nancy Pelosi can be "La Santa Terrorista" (to secure that all-important al-Qaeda vote), or even "La Santa Mexicanos" to gain the support of the massive illegal immigrant voting block.

Now what about a theme song to appeal to the millions of entitlement-minded Democrat voters? With slight modifications, Sirs Rice and Lloyd Webber provide the solution:

• "Would you like to try a college education?
  [NEWS: Democrat-led House will try to help with college costs (USA Today, 11/8/2006)]
  Own your landlord's house, take the family on vacation?
  [Nancy] and her blessed [House] can make your dreams come true
  Here's all you have to do my friends
  Write your name and your dream on a card or a pad or a ticket
  Throw it high in the air and should our lady pick it
  She will change your way of life for a week or even two
  Name me anyone who cares as much as [Nancy Pelosi]!"
