New — A senior House GOP member told me he has spoken to 20 members ready to vote against Jordan and block him on the floor.

Jordan has had positive conversations and pushing for TUESDAY vote, another source saysGOP meeting Monday.

“We can’t reward this behavior,” member says

I get your point. They’re all egomaniacs.

Because there are:

221 Republicans
212 Democrats
002 Vacancies

Which is why the 217 is mentioned as the majority.

Seriously, do FReepers expect Pubbie Reps in purple districts to consistently vote against their constituents expectations?
*************************************************************

I can’t speak for other freepers but this one believes you are a FRAUD if you call yourself a Republican in the campaign and then vote Democrat if and when you are elected which SEEMS to be what you are saying is “ok”.

Make no mistake, who’s speaker is only PART of what this “vacate” the speakers office is all about, the main part is that this is a battle over the soul of the Republican Party. If you have to lie to your “constituents” to get elected then you should not run in the first place. More simply put the REAL battle is, as always, THE LEFT vs THE RIGHT! Think of 2 dogs in the back yard fighting over a bone!
