david cicellini may or may not also bow out for the race and clear the way for ben ray luhaan, i think luhan would have the vote if it came to a vote but cicellini some sources have been telling me may drop out of of the race and go back to the communications wing of the democratic caucus. and which he is currently a co-chairman of, and try to run again for that. >> when will the democrats on the house side hold their elections? >> that's not going to be until after thanksgiving. they shifted the race, which was viewed at the time by a lot of sources as a way for nancy pelosi to have time to whip for her own support. i think if it was held, you know, today, as the republicans were, it would a little bit touch and go. but she is going to have a lot of time to turn on the charm, and give -- it is kind of a transactional situation, you know, i want this, and you want that, and how can we get the things that we want and move forward together? and there is weeks still left before any decisions have to be made. >> democrats line, josy from west palm beach florida, hi. >> caller: good morning
