The intersection of politics and cars is increasingly evident at the Detroit auto show.

Expect more political drama today. U.S. Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi has arrived at the North American International Auto Show with a contingent of Congressional delegates, including House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer.

Upon her arrival, Pelosi visited several auto exhibits and posed for photos -- but her press conference won't happen until 5 p.m. Stay tuned for more political fireworks.

Nancy Pelosi is a complete disaster. Agree with the previous poster that she should tour Detroit to see the effects of her political party and leadership. Coming to the rest of America soon.

I hope she takes the time for a tour of the city of Detroit, so she can see first-hand the consequences of the left-wing Democrat agenda. 50 years of Democratic leadership, and what a hellhole the once-great and beautiful city has become.

I hope she flew commercial.
