Nancy Pelosi

Yesterday during a press conference Nancy Pelosi announced she would continue in her role as Minority House Leader. Then as the conference was opened to questions, a male reporter asked if she would consider stepping down to make room for younger generation.  Was this a question because Pelosi is a woman?  Or was this reporter going to attend Speaker John Boehnor if he was going to step down also because of his age?  I am happy to report, those present booed the question!
