Now that the GOP has gained a House majority, Kevin McCarthy has a real opportunity to rise to the occasion. Although it wasn’t the midterm election result McCarthy wanted, by winning the House of Representatives the Republican Party has a seat at the governing table. The 55th speaker of the House is in a position to set policies and priorities in contrast to Joe Biden, and in the process make the case that a Republican belongs back in the White House in 2024.
Doing so means that McCarthy and his lieutenants will have to demonstrate they understand the value of playing the long game. Even in a complicated political environment,
Tired of RINOS; tired of the long game.
We need a warrior as speaker!

I don't think McCarthy has it in him. I think he's a bought and paid for member of the RINO Club of DC. I hope I'm wrong.

Spare me. Unless the GOPe suddenly decides to notice and address systemic vote fraud, there will be no winning in sight.

But I doubt that he will do it, just like Boehner and Ryan .....not working for the American people, working for their rich donors and to fill their own offshore bank accounts.

Opportunity and action are two entirely different things. We had an opportunity to Make America Great Again and look what the voters, the cowards and the cheaters did in 2020. McCarthy is not the guy to fix anything.

... but he and McConnell will screw it up, on purpose or because they just will.

Continuing to insult the real conservative Republican base and stabbing Trump in the back will only result in voters staying home in 2024 which, based on what we are seeing so far, is EXACTLY what’s going to happen.

FTA..."Republicans would be well-served to focus first on what majorities of the American people want – bringing inflation under control, lowering the cost of gasoline and groceries, leading the country out of recession, and checking President Biden’s tax-and-spend Big Government master plan."
The same Americans who voted Democrats in despite mouthing off how bad inflation is???? There is no hope for this country when people are not willing to take necessary steps to implement the change.

How much of McCarthy's nearly $2M from FTX did he pay you to write that headline?

I do not expect anything from the Republican party. Easier that way. Can't be disappointed or letdown. If the start presenting a real alternative to what is happening in Washington, I will take notice. Not holding my breath.
Lookout for yourselves, people! The government sure won't.

The anti-Republican mob are so predictable and tiresome tossing out democrat talking points every time an article is posted with the word Republican in it.

The RCP authors expect Frank Luntz's roommate to be bold in the face of the corrupt left. To be nice and not raise my blood pressure all I'll say is I'll believe it when I see it.

In mere months he will be seen as Paul Ryan 2.0, the quintessential RINO.

McCarthy lives with Frank Luntz! Frank traveled with him campaigning, they were together in Virginia Beach the night before the election.

We don't need a warrior to be speaker, we need someone who can manage the diverse Republican caucus.
There are some from moderate states and districts, some from conservative states and districts.
The latter usually likes to call the former RINO's since they are conservative.
Most aren't conservative, and no one single election will reverse the decades of liberal/progressivism.
Step by step, winning allows you to govern and set the agenda, but it takes many election wins over 8-10 years time.

This piece is b.s., Real Clear Politics wants McCarthy because he will sell out as soon as he gets the Speaker slot. He's a Paul Ryan.

Same talk coming from Biden now, the let's work together garbage. Absolute hooey. The Dems will stomp whatever's left of courage out of the Republicans and grab it all. Just watch. It is going to get way worse before it gets better,
