To me....Hoyer seems likely...he is #2 already.
Barney!
It’s time to cut the blarney, vote Barney for Speaker!
It’s time. If not now, when? If not Barney, who?
The First Openly Homosexual Speaker of the United States.
Perhaps he may even get married.
He could pull an endrun around Steny.....get him while he’s not looking.....teabag him into submission.....who knows what allies Barney may gather, after all, politics makes strange bedfellows!
That was my first thought, but do you think he’s Obama’s choice?
