It looks like Pelosi and company aren’t losing much sleep at the Left’s anger over the pro-life Stupak amendment.
The American Spectator‘s Prowler quotes an annonymous Democratic aide:
“Fine. Let [the groups] be mad, where are they going to go? The Republicans?” said one aide. “They can be mad all they want, but it’s not like they have anywhere else to go. You hate to say it, but we take them for granted because they’ve allowed themselves to be taken for granted. The Speaker was very confident that at the end of the day, those groups are going to be standing with us when the next big issue comes along. We’ll make it up to them and they’ll get over this pretty quick.”
