I had my doubts about McCarthy, still do. But nothing will give me greater satisfaction than to admit I was wrong. We'll see. But so far McCarthy seems to be doing all the right things. The debt ceiling fight will be the acid test. But if McCarthy is willing and able to go to the mat to get meaningful concessions from the dems then I would be impressed to say the least.
Ultimately its not McCarthy - he is just a pawn on the chessboard. He will do the right things at each point as required by the WHs. When the time comes to use the debt ceiling weapon - probably one of the last moves - he will.
