Pelosi fundraising e-mail: I guarantee that we'll hold the House

I can’t believe that, four full days after Gibbs’s innocuous, semi-retracted, painfully self-evident comment on Meet the Press about the House being up for grabs, she and the rest of the caucus are still screeching about it.

In a new fundraising email from the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, Pelosi guarantees in no uncertain terms that Democrats will retain control of the House of Representatives.
