"It is the first time in 100 years that the majority party has failed to coalesce around a candidate for Speaker"
That's probably how long Pelosi was speaker. LOL

AOC is trying to gather democrat votes to push McCarthy over the top... So he will ‘owe’ her, and in general try to prevent anyone actually conservative be elected by some miracle.

A true leader would have never let the vote go beyond the first round.

In the first two rounds, there were 19 Republicans who voted for Rep. Jordan over McCarthy. In the third round, there were 20 Republicans who voted for Jordan.
At this rate, Jordan will be elected speaker in 198 more rounds.

Jim Jordan has a good conservative record, but the other side would eat him alive over the Ohio State Pedo Scandal.
Do they seriously want him as speaker?
