Pelosi Lays Down Law
In talks with White House chief of staff-designate Rahm Emanuel and others, Politico reports House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has "set parameters" for what she wants from the Obama administration: "no surprises, and no backdoor efforts to go around her and other Democratic leaders by cutting deals with moderate New Democrats or conservative Blue Dogs."

"Specifically, Pelosi has told Emanuel that she wants to know when representatives of the incoming administration have any contact with her rank-and-file Democrats -- and why."

Said one source: "Pelosi is not going to allow Obama to triangulate her. It's not going to happen to her."
