They are NOT going to hold a new election for speaker during the lame duck. After it, none of these jerks signing the letter will be there anyway. Now at the spearhead of a smaller contingent of left wing nut cases, the will be reelected. The claxon on that was sounded with Clyborn challenging Horner for the second in command in the dummo party.
She will probably return the letter to those who sign it with a little note saying, thanks for your service, chump.
I think you are right on that.This letter is from the defeated dems who don’t get to vote on her reelection as speaker.You know the somewhat sane ones who know why they were beat as a warning and as a last slap at Madame Speaker.Makes great press but has little to do with who is elected speaker unless the liberal wing takes note and gets cold feet.
