What else would you expect McCarthy to say. Based on what I just saw on FNC, he wasn’t acting very confident. He wouldn’t even answer a fairly straightforward question. He just kept walking up a stairway with 1-2 aides blocking access to him. He’s very worried he won’t be the new Speaker. If he is not elected, he’s going to look really stupid having to move his stuff back out of the Speaker’s chambers.

I think 4 of the impeachment traitors are still there.

Scalise is the obvious choice if Mc Carthy steps aside.

When the new congresscritters are seated this month, there will be 222 republicans and 213 democrats. If the nine republicans abstain from voting, and everybody else falls in line, it will be 213 v 213. Then what?

Great. Stick it to the left-wing of the GOP. They stuck it to us for long enough. They didn’t fight to win more seats and actively worked against conservatives winning in 2022. So F# them.

But who is going to replace his candidacy? And will he/she have enough votes to become Speaker?

Nancy Pelosi

Is the leader only elected by unanimous support?

THats the truth. McCarthy undermined the candidacy of many house conservatives across the country, just the way Mitch did for Senate Candidates.Plus he greased the omnibus bill skids.

McCarthy has to go.We need a real scrapper as Speaker.....and that’s either Matt Gaetz or Jim Jordan.

Time for RINOS to go to the back of the bus.

Your post is outstading because it delineates exactly what the issues of the stubborn 9 aee. None of thenews networks talk about these issues, onlyabout the “horrible delay” and GOP disunity.

This is not GOP disunity...its RINO disunity form a group of GOPe dinosaurs who refuse to share their colonial power established under King Bush.So we understandably have a revolt in the GOP ranks.

RINOs need to realize they need to share power with MAGA or they will have no power.

The days of Boehner/Ryan/McArthy are over, that era ended with those 3 dead votes yesterday.
