Good. McCarthy had his shot, if he is so concerned with division in the party he needs to step aside and see if they can coalesce behind someone else. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: The perpetuation of graft . Quote HistoryQuoted: The perpetuation of graft . When in doubt ask St. Rush (insert McCarthy for Boehner) RUSH: David, South Side, Chicago, great to have you next on the program, sir. Hello. CALLER: Good afternoon. Thank you for taking my call. RUSH: Yes, sir. CALLER: I was listening to your comments about Boehner before, and I was just wondering, do you think it's possible that he's been compromised? Because at the beginning of his tenure, he had been the poster child for conservatism. He's done a complete about-face. He's a rubber stamp Democrat now. He's done an about-face on immigration, an about-face on tax reform, an about-face on Obamacare. I think somebody's holding the sword of Damocles over his head. Do you think it's possible? RUSH: Well, yeah, but I don't think that's the explanation. It happens to too many people up there. Once again, let me cite for you O'Sullivan's Law: Anything that is not actively conservative every day will eventually become liberal. Boehner was a ranking leader in Mr. Newt's leadership. I mean, that was as pedal-to-the-metal conservative as you can get. And then, I mean, let's face it, the budget battle of 1995 just destroyed a bunch of these guys, David. It just destroyed 'em. And conservatism is constantly under attack, and one by one, the leadership in Newt's group began to fall away, one by one. I think they got bit by what the dominant culture, political and social, in Washington is. Now, I know the simple explanation that people would like is there's blackmail going on or that there's some shaming going on or what have you. I think it happens gradually and a little bit more subtle than that. And at the root of all of it is going to be donor money. BRETT: That's it. That's it. The root of all of it is the donor money. That's how you get where you want to go. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Rand Paul Rand Paul is a great person to stir the pot but he is no leader. Not even a little bit. McCarthy is no leader either or he would have won the first round. The sad part is there isn't a single person in the House from either party who is a real leader much less fit to lead our Nation. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Wiikow reported Trump called Boebert and told her to back down and she told him to get bent. She would back down when McCarthy withdrew. Boebert says Trump should tell McCarthy to withdraw from Speaker’s race Boebert, a staunch supporter of Trump, made the comment while nominating Rep. Byron Donalds (R-Fla.) to be Speaker during the fifth ballot. “Praise the work and the leadership of Byron Donalds. So let’s work together, let’s stop with the campaign smears and tactics to get people to turn against us. Even having my favorite president call us and tell us we need to knock this off — I think it actually needs to be reversed,” Boebert said on the House floor. “The president needs to tell Kevin McCarthy that sir you do not have the votes and it’s time to withdraw,” she added, prompting a cacophony of boos and cheers in the chamber. Boebert rebukes Trump, then helps hand McCarthy another loss For the fifth time in two days, California Rep. Kevin McCarthy lost a vote to become speaker of the House of Representatives. As with the fourth vote, a large group of GOP detractors cast their votes for Florida Rep. Byron Donalds. In a speech nominating Donalds, Colorado Rep. Lauren Boebert said that her "favorite president" (former President Donald Trump) had called her and other members asking them to "knock this off." "I actually think it needs to be reversed: the president needs to tell Kevin McCarthy, 'Sir you do not have the votes and it's time to withdraw," Boebert said. After Boebert's remarks, several members on the House floor could be heard expressing surprise that Boebert publicly revealed a private conversation with Trump and proceeded to not do his bidding. As the fifth vote was underway, Colorado Rep. Ken Buck, who voted for McCarthy all five times, told CNN it's time for McCarthy to consider dropping out and supporting Louisiana Rep. Steve Scalise, the No. 2 House Republican. |

If you lose enough times, you're a loser. Time to step aside.
It just becomes sad after so many failed attempts. Seeing the fur fly, egos crushed and the Status Quo shattered is sorta entertaining. |

Romney, McCain, McCarthy = would rather bend the knee to democrats than work things out with their own party. He has already signed a 'Right to Vacate' deal with the reps just so he could run, and he cannot take that off the table. Only takes 5 members to vote to start the process of removing him once he gets the seat. If he makes a deal with the dems he will get dumped with extreme prejudice. |
