Pelosi's vow to 'step in' doesn't sit well with Clinton supporter

[Psycho4Bud]

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's vow yesterday that she will "step in" to settle the Democratic presidential contest if the nominee hasn't been determined by late June isn't making one of Hillary Rodham Clinton's more vocal supporters very happy.

USA TODAY's Fredreka Schouten spoke today with Allida Black, a professor at George Washington University and co-founder of the WomenCount PAC, which wants Clinton to get the nomination.

"I thought it was undemocratic," Black said about what Pelosi told The San Francisco Chronicle yesterday. Never in the history of our party have we precluded any candidate from going to the convention floor. ... I'm an elected delegate from the state of Virginia. ... She has no right as a leader of this party to say the party has to make a decision before the convention. That's what the convention was created to do. ... I don't want Nancy Pelosi telling me who my nominee is."

For her part, Pelosi had this to say to the Chronicle about WomenCount, which has in recent weeks bought full-page ads in USA TODAY and other newspapers to make its case that that Clinton should not be forced out of the race:

"God bless their enthusiasm. ... These women are fabulous, and I know many of them very well." But, while "we all want to see a woman president ... they want me to be the chair of the convention, who is neutral. And yet they want me to be for Hillary Clinton."

Update at 4:30 p.m. ET: Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid told a radio station that he, Pelosi and party chairman Howard Dean have agreed the nomination race will not go to the convention. He predicted it "will end a couple of days after June 3."

Pelose, Dean, Reid and womans activist groups....I think they should seriously reconsider the "super delegate" system.
