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.

They need to be someone else less tied to the dysfunction which has existed for so long.

In a way it’s just spite. Scalise will be the compromise, but he will be very little different than McCarthy. Same thing happened when Boehner was ditched for Ryan; not much difference, but Boehner was humiliated.

The end is convincing themselves that they're somewhat important.

They know that whoever is elected Speaker will probably be less conservative then Kevin. Just like Paul Ryan was when they forced Boehner out

They don't care. Don't look for principle or any effort to make things better for their constituents. It's all about them.

I would prefer someone other than McConnell, Jr. Wouldn’t you?

The House Speaker need not be a congress critter.

Newt Gingrich, Ben Carson, Pompeo would all be good choices.

The end game is the End liberal republican leadership and place a more conservative leaning representative in that role.

McCarthy, McConnell, McDaniels need to go! Enough of the betrayals from republicans in leadership.
