When does Speaker Hoyer take the gavel?

[muawiyah]

Don't count on Hoyer. He has a record of cowtowing to members of the Congressional Black Caucus as well as the Prince Georges County Maryland Democrat party, which is black dominated.

The new speaker will come from a different faction that wants some of the loot. The thinking will be that with the Black Caucus having the Presidency, last thing anyone needs is their trained houseservant Stenny.
