I shed no tears if McCarthy does not become Speaker.
But who is going to replace his candidacy? And will he/she have enough votes to become Speaker?
What is their desired end-game? No House speaker should be chosen at all?
Well yes, if they dont vote for him and unless he stands aside.
Could go on for months. There is precedence albeit a long time ago.
Hope they stand strong.
Can’t afford this f’n around while the communists charge forward. We need leadership so committee and staff can get organized.
They need to be someone else less tied to the dysfunction which has existed for so long.
Scalise?
Amateur numbers. Gotta pump ‘em up.
But it is a good reference point as to how many RINOs are actually in the House. They’re not all in the Senate, obviously.
No. A Democrat will be speaker
I understand but unless he stands aside the voting for speaker could go on for weeks/months and some of them are prepared for that.
Who blinks first.
I repeat....

That wont happen.
There should be at least 200 signers

Well, communists have been moving forward for 70 years under the status quo.
I’d say it’s time to f around.
He’s a weak leader. I only hope that Perry knows something, like for example that McCarthy will capitulate.
Scalise is my tip if McCarthy stands aside.
He wont run against him and will need to be drafted kind of thing.
A Democrat. Only a handful of RINO votes required.
Jim Jordan all the way
