McCarthy is Worse !


Yep. The last person you would want leading the GOP on immigration is a vain, pompous GOPer from a safe CA district like McCarthy.

Senators generally have the governor appoint temporary successors (depends on state law). Representatives usually have a special election.

As tempting as calling for tar and feathers would be, I just want that blubbering surrender monkey gone and replaced with someone who actually possesses a pair.

Much as I absolutely despise Nancy Pelosi, she has more 'nads than most of them. She plants her position marker and doesn't give a friggin' inch. I can only wish the GOP had someone of that ability.

I wonder if it is partly related to do his daughter and son-in-law, a part-time construction worker with the ‘cat-in-the-hat” hat and rap sheet.

Cantor is eligible since Speakers don’t have to be members.

In that case, so would Allen West.

I heard Nancy Pelosi offered him the basement apartment in her house. She’ll throw food scraps down the stairwell from time to time.

McCarthy sold out the CA Gop in the 2010 redistricting.

Is that right?

Do not want McCarthy
Do not want Ryan
Do not want Cantor...
