'You'll see a change within 100 hours'

摘要

NANCY PELOSI, the new Speaker of the US House of Representatives, is a woman in a hurry. When Newt Gingrich and the Republicans took control of the House in 1995, they moved to enact their conservative "Contract with America" within 100 days. Now back in the driving seat as of 4 January, Pelosi and the Democrats have vowed to introduce legislation on their top priorities in the first 100 hours.
