These are obviously beyond your ken if you equate Pelosi to far left.

Carville helped Clinton who is decidedly centrist, a DLC type, not even a left wing Dem; Dean is a fiscal conservative and something of a populist but certainly not a leftist in any traditional understanding of the term.

I think the closest we have to any traditional left winger in political office at the present is Bernie Sanders, the sole Rep from Vermont who is likely to be one of the two Vermont Senators in the next congress. And he's not even a Dem.
