Isn’t it time for Nancy Pelosi to retire yet?

Millions of Americans are told by their employers every year that it’s time for them to leave their jobs, that they have gotten too old, and that someone younger is taking their position.

Why doesn’t this ever seem to apply to people in Washington?

Pelosi is going to turn 80 next March, yet she is apparently planning to run for speaker again.
