capitol hill. good morning, daniela. what are you learning? reporter: congress is going to look very different next year, especially on the house side with jefferies who has been long rumored to launch husband bid to replace pelosi, doing that on friday, just a day after pelosi said in a speech on the house floor that she would not seek a leadership in the next congress. she plans to reman in congress as a rank and file mum but this will be a huge shift for the democratic caucus. jefferies of curse being much younger that. nannies pelosi, jim clyburn endorsed him for the position. he would be the first black leader to lead a party in
very interesting that kathleen sebelius was in the front row. an opportunity maybe for the president to thank her for helping to turn the page. instead he sent a shoutout to democrats like nannies pelosi. pointedly did not mention kathleen sebelius. that raised a lot of eyebrows inside the house. you mentioned sylvia burwell. highly respected on capitol hill both parties because she has a business background. what senior administration officials are telling us tonight is that the president now wants someone post sebelius to be all over not just the web site but signups. the full implementation of this law in a way perhaps that kathleen sebelius inside herself she hadn t been able been up to doing that job. they are praising kathleen sebelius tonight. but they are obviously expressing relief that there is going to be a change here. i think sylvia burwell, someone before being the office of management and budget was also someone who ran the wal-mart foundation, ran the bill gates foundat
president, i will be submissive to my husband in the white house. that did not happen to any of the male candidates. i do think we see a double standard. hillary clinton faced a double standard in 2008. there is no question chris matthews had asked a question about whether troops would respect a woman, for instance, if she was commander and chief. sarah palin had to answer the question as vice president if she could also be a mother. these aren t questions that a man has to deal with i think all of this has to work its way out. people are coming comfortable with seeing women in these positions. finally real quick, do you think that hillary clinton is going to use the so-called war on women in they re campaign? is she going to run and use gender politics? do you think she will? nannies pelosi has and we have seen male liberals use this war on women. whether she will, i think will be a mistake if she does. but we will see.

because traditional americans and independent americans are going, you know what? we want a fair presentation. i think that s what s going on. bill, you talked about this before. the comcast shareholders. bill: absolutely. i would wonder what they have to say about this. they are the real investors at nbc. they have a vested interest in making sure that nbc as a news operation, forget the cable stuff but just as a news operation is being perceived as even handed as possible. i wouldn t be surprised if the shareholders themselves started making more of a stink of some of this stuff. bill: all right. now i heard that you are in san francisco because you are having dinner with nancy pelosi and she is buying? yeah, well gavin newsom, nannies pelosi, dianne feinstein we are all getting together. see the bridge behind me? we are trying to bridge the divide, all of us. we are working hard. we are trying to do an intervention. bill: laura and i are making this up. nancy pelosi woul
