And about this. Is the same meaning as Speaker? Thanks

 

KING: We're back with the vice president of the United States. Nancy Pelosi is coming back, this time as minority leader. She was a lightning rod, you've got to admit that.

JOE BIDEN: Oh, yes. When you spend 65,000 -- $65 million to make someone a lightning rod, it works. I go back far enough. You and I remember when Tip O'Neill was made the lightning rod. Remember that off-year race with Reagan?
