But there might be enough that would vote for Liz Cheney along with all the Dems.

The Republicans will have 222 Votes. If the Five who vowed not to vote for him stay that way, he comes up with 217. I predict that at least one or two will be “Bribed” into voting for him. Stay tuned. January 3d is still over a month away and there will be a lot of “Jaw Boning” between now and then.
Pelosi stays.
My suspicion is that McCarthy will negotiate (buy) Democrat votes for Speakership. Heaven knows what price he’ll be willing to pay for them.
As much as I detest the Rinos, I don’t think they would vote for a democrat.

This may be the flaw in your presentation.
Liz Cheney isn’t around anymore, but would vote for a democrat.
How many like her are left?
We saw 12 rinos cross over in the senate for the ‘marriage’ bill.
It would only take how many, 3 or 4? Final numbers aren’t in yet, I think.
And a larger question. Can the House call for a vote for a new speaker at any time? During the term?
My guess is that Democrats will extract the embarrassment of that and then throw a few votes to put him over the top. The alternative is that McCarthy and his leadership team drop out before/after the first vote, let the party put up a new candidate. I say that whatever it takes, they should stop McCarthy and his team from assuming leadership.
The SOH does not have to be a representative. So just about anyone could be elected as Speaker. All the Constitution says is the House will pick it's own officers.
My secret wish is Trump is elected Speaker. Just the photo of Nancy(who hates his guts) having to hand the gavel over to her nemesis would be a picture for the ages.
McCarthy would have to horse-trade: either agree to put someone on a specific committee in exchange for his vote, or agree to bring a pet bill/amendment to the floor in exchange for their vote, etc.

If sandwich boy would agree to never reach across the aisle he wouldn’t have a worry about being elected speaker. The undeniable fact that he is a deal cutting RINO is the only reason this is even being discussed.
.
McCarthy and the establishment GOP wanted Twitter to block the accounts of the few Politicians that supported Trump.
If that’s what you want…

Conservative Republicans?
Isn’t that an oxymoron?.....................
That statement could kill this thread...
At least 12 fellow traveling GOPers with the all qualifications of traitorhood come to mind...
Appoint Trump as Speaker of the House
Hold muh beer. I'll show you threadkilling...
This is simply negotiation tactics for committee slots, budgeting, c’mon you all, wise up.

I just left a message on the House Freedom Fund website requesting a list of the current members. I think they could use some encouragement. I’ll try to put together a contact list later today, unless somebody already has one they could post.
I have some errands to run now.
Thanks all,

Otherwise we will have a Dem as the speaker. Will there be enough RINOs to vote for a Dem? Possibly. I'd rather not take the chance. No need for a circular firing squad at this time.
After what we've seen from the RINOs in recent years, I wouldn't put it past them to vote for a Democrat.
He’ll cut a deal with democrats to get the votes he needs….
