Still They Persist

by Pa Rock

U.S. House Democrats met yesterday and selected their leadership team for the next Congress.  There were no surprises in the top three positions because none of those selected had any formal opposition.  Nancy Pelosi was confirmed as the nominee to become Speaker of the House, Steny Hoyer was named as the next Majority Leader, and Jim Clyburn will become the Majority Whip.  All three have held down the top spots in the House Democratic leadership for years - and all three will turn eighty-years-old during the next Congress.

Still they persist.

The average life expectancy in the United States is 78.6 years.

Then actuarially we may soon expect change; because the Grim Reaper will cast the deciding votes.
