“Nancy Pelosi will go down in history as the greatest speaker of all time,” Sellers continued. “Whether or not you’re talking about ushering a country through infectious-diseaseor passing Obamacare, or the Affordable Care Act. So, her legacy is already written. But there comes a time, whether or not you’re Nancy Pelosi, or whether or not you’re, you know, Tom Brady, that sometimes you have to hang up the cleats when it comes to being leader of your particular party or leader of your organization.”
Sellers seemed to suggest Pelosi could remain in office but not necessarily a leadership position.
“Part of being a great leader is knowing when it is time to turn the reins over,” he concluded.

“While we have made progress much more needs to be done to improve people’s lives. This election is crucial: nothing less is at stake than our Democracy,” Pelosi said on Twitter Tuesday. “But we don’t agonize-we organize. I am running for re-election to Congress to deliver For The People and defend Democracy.”
