Can't believe there aren't 7 Republicans with the cajones to do what is right and vote for Jeffries. Oh come on. That would be Republicans without any brains.

Wrestleknownothing Posted October 18, 2023 Author Share Posted October 18, 2023 On the plus side Jordan moved one of yesterdays no votes to yes, and one absent to yes. On the minus side he appears on pace for more than 20 no votes. Drowning in data, but thirsting for knowledge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrestleknownothing Posted October 18, 2023 Author Share Posted October 18, 2023 22 no votes, up from 20 in spite of gaining 2. Bit of a gut punch for Jordan. Clearly, whatever tactics he employed overnight and into this morning were counter-productive. He has not appeared to be someone who can adjust his tactics in the past. He found something that worked for him and he stuck with it. I do not think he has the ability to zig when zagging does not work.

WrestlingRasta Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 MAGA is fun right now MAGA elect McCarthy gets the speakership for the Republicans MAGA midget Gaetz doesn't like McCarthy so he gets him thrown out Republicans can't agree on a speaker, even with threats and attempts at bullying politics within the party, because control is starting to slip through MAGA's fingers So............McCarthy blames democrats the house doesn't have a speaker. This is beautiful. Hopefully the real 'draining of the swamp' is starting to begin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't sure if McCarthy ever went backward though, so I looked it up. And he did. He started with 19 no votes, stayed there for three more rounds before it grew to 21 no votes. That lasted at least through round eight. By round twelve he was down to 7 no votes. Round fourteen got him one shy.

I have heard a number of republicans say they have one concession they will absolutely not bend on. He must admit that the election was not stolen, while also denouncing the efforts on Jan 6 to overturn. That's a pretty big ask of him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
