Oh, me too! But Gaetz and Jordan are playing the bank shot, setting up the money shot... So it will not be either of them.

So, who's the bank shot?

Well, he did win the nomination by an overwhelming caucas majority ----- so there's that.

So did these guys.



Maybe the majority of Republicans are the problem.  But they still have an opportunity now to turn from their evil ways of Democrat Lite.

THATS A WRAP on the second ballot roll. 19 House Rs still vote against him -- no more or less than the first ballot. Shows a lot of work still left for them.

All 19 voted for Jordan this round.

I need to call my TX Rep's office, who voted McC, and suggest changing to Jordon.

Some Democrats might not show up for future rounds, I’m told, by several sources… some are just bored by the House GOP drama, others think it’s better than voting present

Exactly!!!

And did you happen to see the the short list of easy 3 concessions that the Freedom Caucus asked?

McCarthy basically is giving conservatives the middle finger.

He's counting on the votes from Republicans who have sworn that they won't vote for another RINO.   :shrug:
