But McCarthy critics don't like that idea. "We don't want this playing out in front of a global television audience, take it to conference." In other words, if McCarthy stumbles, they want to take it behind closed doors for a reckoning within the splintered club/family/party. — PolitiTweet.org

(thread) eve of speaker vote. Biggest question among GOP sources this morning: So what happens if McCarthy doesn't have the votes on the floor? The vote plays out and he doesn't reach the threshold. Then what? Some McCarthy allies tell CBS he should "fight it out on the floor." — PolitiTweet.org

If it got there -- to a closed-door, messy House GOP conclave on Jan. 3 -- there are many schools about how they would unfold. Some believe McCarthy could weild the embarrassment as a weapon against his critics and urge the party to get back out there and unite. — PolitiTweet.org
