It's the same old thing.
"If our preferred guy doesn't win, then it'll be the Democrat, so you might as well support our guy!"
And there's another alternative. For McCarthy to step aside since he doesn't have enough support. But of course that'll never happen because that's not how these people operate. McCarthy is one of the Young Guns, Establishment tools intended to be Speaker.
Let McCarthy lose a couple of votes on the 3rd. Force him to remove his name from contention, so we get another choice. We're tired of the game.
LOL!
Here’s the other story.
With a slim majority I suppose that that’s possible. And in the Senate...if Walker wins (unlikely given Rat Party voter fraud) the GOP could try to flip Manchin.
“If our preferred guy doesn’t win, then it’ll be the Democrat, so you might as well support our guy!”
Pretty much a distinction without a difference at this point
He’s a member of the Uniparty and wants a Uniparty speaker.
Regardless of who R’s elect as Speaker nothing will change because the party itself has no principles or convictions. JMHO
You have to choose between a fake Dem and a real Dem. He is not MAGA and a NeverTrumper.
McCarthy needs to make concessions if he wants to be speaker.
Trump endorsed McCarthy as a great leader, but without conditions.
It is good that some are putting conditions on McCarthy for speaker.
I told you. He will sell out to get a few Dems to vote for him and the Uniparty marches on
So McCarthy goes with the “At Least I’m Not A Democrat” defense? Give me a break!
My guess is some democrats will cross the isle and vote for the some corrupt worthless person like McCarty rather than risk letting a competent person become speaker.
Nobody else is likely to have more support.
The Republicans aren’t likely to unite behind some new candidate.
If McCarthy isn’t the House Speaker, then who is? The Republican who challenged him and got all of 30 votes among his fellow Republicans?
Who’re the alternatives? The names that come to my mind are not representatives, but senators. So I am kind of clueless here.
LOL! I was at an event in Northern Virginia when the host said “I want to introduce you to Eric Cantor who is standing over there.” I said no thanks. I don’t talk to RINOs. The host is a RINO and looked displeased. I went back to my seat.
No McCarthy, no way.

That’s awesome!
“...but senators. So I am kind of clueless here.”
You do realize the Speaker can be anyone? Does not have to be a member of the house. But this all noise, cowardly republicans will vote McCarthy, this story is just to sell print or get clicks.
