"It’s either McCarthy or someone worse - the choice needs to be McCarthy."

This is sort of like holding your nose to vote for McStain or Romney in 2008 and 2012.

Yeah, sort of - rooting for the lesser of two evils is something conservatives have had to live with for decades now. But if we end up with someone even more "moderate" than McCarthy due to Democrat input into the speakership, we've lost the one good to come out of the 2022 elections - the House majority.
