He needs to step aside and see if someone else can get more votes.

Pelosi just criticized Republicans for not voting for McCarthy. That says it all.

Kevin McCarthy FAILS 10th Vote for Speaker

Poor McCarthy. For over a year, he thought he was anointed as next Speaker. He even moved into Pelosi's office over Christmas. It's going to suck for him to settle for a committee chair.

After omnibus passage this doesn’t need to be resolved until at least September. I say keep it going.

My wish:

McCarthy withdraws and nominates Jim Jordan.

Jim Jordan accepts and agrees to be Speaker.

Jim Jordan says “no backroom deals, no buying votes, let’s just do a straight up vote and get on with business”.

We’d see pretty quick who is interested in honesty and principles and who has their own agenda.

My suspicion is that many of the 20 Patriotic Holdouts would have a hissy fit and start screaming Jordan is RINO traitor. Only a suspicion mind you, but based on reports many of the Holdouts have been trying to blackmail McCarthy into secret deals.

That leaves Biden acting alone. You’re good with that?

Is it true that McCarthy has already started moving into the Speaker’s office?

Or more importantly, the same as right before the civil war. That gives us no more than 6 years and down the hot CWII hole we go.

It’s not crazy, it’s incredible. This is how legislators should do it. Debate, discuss and deliberate.

This is the first debate on the House floor in many years.

The Pelosi model is “do what I tell you.” Guess what? It’s over.
