I'm not sure who your target audience is with this qoute, Tabs, but I think what you're getting at is Pelosi wants puppet representation in the white house with a liberal and "conservative" as POTUS and VP where she calls the shots and controls the money and subsequently the agenda.

Your absolutely on the right track with "control" and the "racial connotation"...not so much the puppet representation though! She wants a Conservative to act as a counter weight to the Liberal agenda of change. To nullify getting too crazy with the change stuff, which scares not only the fat kat Dems but the Regan Dems as well. However she is thinking about all those Regan Dems in PA, WVA, KY, OH, IN, MO, MI, FL and TX that simply don't like Obama. Obama needs them to get elected, for even if 25% of them go over to McCAin, Obama is history.

Think who is the Target audience and what does the word "chain" do to their thinking.
