(CNN) -- With Tuesday's takeover of the House comes the near certainty that Democrats will elect the chamber's minority leader as the first madam speaker in U.S. history. Representative Nancy Pelosi, Dem.-California, knows how to play politics and has for a while.
So what will be on the agenda come January? Pelosi has said that in the first 100 hours of her speakership she will push for action implementing all 9/11 Commission recommendations on national security, raising the minimum wage to $7.25. eliminating corporate subsidies for oil companies, allowing the government to negotiate Medicare drug prices, imposing new restrictions on lobbyists, cutting interest rates on college loans and supporting embryonic stem-cell research.....
As for Iraq, Pelosi and the Democrats have yet to explicitly outline their plan for U.S. involvement in the region, but unlike many of her counterparts, Pelosi voted against authorizing the war.
And what about the persnickety allegation that she will skipper tax hikes through the House? Sure she will, said the shoo-in speaker. "We will revisit the tax cuts at the high end in order to give tax cuts to the middle class," she said.
