"Situation Room" host Wolf Blitzer interviewed incoming House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Wednesday and continued the fawning media coverage of the liberal Democrat. His gushing tone can best be described by how he closed the interview:Wolf Blitzer: "Let me just congratulate you and wish you the best of luck. This is going to be an exciting ride.
