According to the official reports, speaker Nancy Pelosi said Monday she doesn't think the Republicans will win control of the U. S. House of Representatives this fall.

The San Francisco Chronicle has reported that White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs said on national television Sunday a GOP takeover was possible. But the powerful California congresswoman said during a visit to her San Francisco district she doesn't see that happening.

Pelosi said, "I don't think there's much likelihood (of Democrats losing control of the House), but anytime the White House wants to lower expectations, that's OK with me. We absolutely have no intention of losing the House."

It was further reported that Pelosi also touched on the economy, saying the nation could slip back into recession if Republican senators do not get on board with House-passed job legislation.

Pelosi also said, "We don't necessarily need another stimulus package, we need public policy that keeps jobs at home." (With Inputs from Agencies)
