Former President Barack Obama praised Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), saying she “will go down as one of the most effective legislative leaders that this country’s ever seen,” the Washington Post reports.
He added: “Nancy is not always the best on a cable show or with a quick soundbite or what have you. But her skill, tenacity, toughness, vision, is remarkable. Her stamina, her ability to see around corners, her ability to stand her ground and do hard things and to suffer unpopularity to get the right thing done, I think, stands up against any person that I’ve observed or worked directly with in Washington during my lifetime.”
