I will make a prediction I am happy to eat crow if wrong - McCarthy will have to coerce and bribe enough to prevail tomorrow. And he will do it.

This is a bad idea all around for him. He would be a mortally wounded/lame duck before even starting. For the good of the party, he shouldn’t even be up for a vote tomorrow. But he will be.

The swamp cannot chance a non rat get in that position. And they thought they had this in the bag even to the point where McCarthy had already moved into the office. This is a bad place for anyone operating with the interests of their constituents in mind. And that is what we are all going to see plain as day tomorrow. The swamp will rear its ugly head for everyone to see. Because anyone else would not have stayed on for rounds 2 and 3 of the shit show.
