   After suffering through Hassert, Boehner and Ryan we deserve much better than McCarthy.

Just like High School.  Vote for most popular.  I know our "Voted Most Popular" contestant won by giving Blow jobs.

I don't think trying to get a member who was unpopular elected as Speaker would be a good use of time.

Better than the strategy of the morons getting just 22 votes.

Courage can become contagious. They started with 5. It's a safe bet that Boebert is right and there are a lot more members who support what the 22 are doing. I'm praying they find the courage to stand up and be counted.

Popularity tends to fade away when the person loses the ability/power to bully you (and America).

But we won't get it without fighting for it!

God Bless those with the courage to stand up and fight. I don't care if this goes on till the govt. hits the debt ceiling and has to shut down. Lets get real change in how things are done.

McRomney needs to step aside. Unless he is a Kamikaze. McRomney is a suicide bomber.

Clearly, we do not need an actual candidate to block an establishment collaborator from becoming Speaker.

The next speaker will either be McCarthy, or someone the Dems chose. That's it.

How dumb can anyone be to give that power to the Left...and its precisely why these clowns are called the 22 morons.

Is this real? EDIT: I now think this is Fake so adding this as to not mislead, I made the mistake so I will keep it up as testiment that I messed up and admit it, didn't do my homework.



Funny who do the Trumpbots support? Is this the great divide? Which Rino will get the nod. Trump has already flipped on his endorsement, so will Trump also not run for President if elected? Who is the greater swamp creature for some here to get behind?

Stayed tuned tomorrow for the next episode of As the Rino Turns.

A viable candidate will emerge if this goes on for awhile. I would love to see Gaetz, but there wouldn't be enough support because the money from the lobbyists would dry up.

A lot of the folks who are against this action opposing McCarthy really just want things to remain the same, but for the Pubs to now control the graft.

I think it's deeper than that. McCarthy is just the tip of the iceberg. A lot of Pubs don't want real investigations of China influence in the govt., or how corrupt so many in both parties are. The admin. state sure doesn't want to see real legislative reorganizations of their fiefdoms presented for the public to see. The lobbyists sure don't want to be exposed for writing the legislation that gets passed and for omnibus bills to be ended.
