In this file photo from Monday, July 15, 2002, then San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown, left, and Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., participate in a groundbreaking ceremony for the new San Francisco Federal Building in San Francisco. Pelosi is poised to become House speaker, a perch her predecessors have used to channel prodigious quantities of cash back home for pet projects. "There's a long tradition where not only can you can bring back your average pork as a member of Congress, but speaker pork gives you a lot of money, a lot of influence over the purse," said Julian Zelizer, a congressional historian at Boston University. "That's one of great benefits of having a person from your district at the head of the House." (AP Photo/George Nikitin)
