If he is blackmail-able, he has no business being Speaker. And it isn’t the administration’s fault. If not them, it would be the Chinese or Russkies.
It’s part of the effort to keep Boehner is place.
Well .. we need to remember that the only way Obama won several of his elections was because he was able to dig up dirt on the other guy.
Why Obama wouldn’t want McCarthy (who totally supported Boehner) is beyond me.
The current people appearing to run for the office of Speaker are much more likely to be Conservative or generally leaning in that direction.
The GOPe propaganda machine wants me to have a fit over Obama’s crew being involved. If they were, shame on them.
But McCarthy and the woman involved also bear responsibility for their actions that put them in the place where this could be said about them.
According to some of his California district folks who are TOTALLY FED UP WITH HIM, it is possible that he has a anchor in his political closet.
