You mean the gutless, spineless RINO Elites or the Conservative base and who they prefer? Like Gowdy or Gohmert who have spine and guts unlike the rest of the gaggle.

Woohoo!

After his comments on Benghazi I couldn’t see how they would support him. I’m amazed so many GOPe still supported him.

So is it the affair or is it his bonehead comment about Gowdy’s committee?

Thank you Baby Jesus for taking him out of the running.

NBC:
“House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy has pulled out of the race for House Speaker, throwing further doubt on congressional leadership ahead of crucial budget negotiations, NBC News confirmed Thursday.

House Republicans said that the party’s leadership election would be pushed to a later date.”

May be good news. May be the RINOs want a more tyrannical Speaker.

Time for a Godly man like Daniel Webster to be leader of the House.

The Websters home-schooled their children using the curriculum of the Advanced Training Institute, which was founded by Bill Gothard.

In May 2014, their son, John married Alyssa Bates, daughter of Gil and Kelly Bates. The Bates family stars in the reality show Bringing Up Bates and have been recurring guests on the show 19 Kids and Counting, which depicts the lives of their friends, Jim Bob Duggar and his wife Michelle.

I believe the Freedom Caucus had its mouth set for Webster. Neither has a good Conservative score but Chaffetz’s is higher than Webster’s. On the other hand Webster has experience as a House Speaker in Florida and, if he determines to make a mark he will be a Conservative as Speaker.

Gowdy and Gomert have both declined the honor emphatically.
