I have no other choice but to agree with you.
Ditto. McCarthy is long on rhetoric, short on action. He waited far, far too long in booting Cheney out of her "leadership" gig and did so only when it became obvious - even to him - that she was not helping anything or anyone but the Dems.
He wants the Speaker gig so bad he can taste it, so he's employing all his political gestures vis a vis the GOP elite class to ensure that. IOW, playing both ends against the middle.
The sad thing is, he'll probably be successful. And that's only mildly better than ousting Pelousy from the gig.
Yep, shades of Paul Ryan. History repeats itself yet again.
