Pelosi facing first competitive race of her political career

Supporters of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (pictured) needn't be alarmed. She will probably win re-election to the consternation of true conservatives everywhere.

In this GOP year, Republicans are hoping to knock off a number of the Democrats' most senior lawmakers: Barney Frank, John Dingell, John Spratt and others.

Even with so many trends running in a Republican direction, defeating Pelosi in San Francisco is probably beyond reach.

Even so, Pelosi is in her very first competitive political race.
