As far as political battles go—and since I am not a member of Congress—I don't have particularly strong feelings about this one. But the rage and confusion from the establishment GOP is absurd. The whole episode is neither complicated nor surprising. — PolitiTweet.org

"But what do the anti-McCarthy Republicans want??" (Someone other than McCarthy.) "But why??" (They don't trust him.) "But this has never happened before!!" (Yes it has, last time, also to McCarthy.) "But they need to fall in line!!" (No they don't.) — PolitiTweet.org

The irony of the McCarthy fight is that, from an "issues" standpoint, he would likely be the most conservative speaker since Joe Martin in the '50s. But leadership elections involve a lot more than policy positions. And if he can't get the votes, he can't get the votes. — PolitiTweet.org
