I thought she was more of a moderate because it's Crist's old district, which isn't that Republican.

What happens if someone is elected speaker and refuses?

Uncharted territory but I guess they'd have to elect another speaker or limp along with a Speaker who doesn't do anything.

We're still discussing the "Fair" Tax? Jesus

That's literally part of the Freedom caucus demand

Gosar and AOC are having (what looks like) an engrossing conversation...that's an interesting combo right there.

Gosar needs to be kicked out of the Republican Party

For what, daring to converse with someone from the other side of the aisle?

It’s an R+5 seat

It's FL, and I doubt anyone cares about this 18 months down the road.

Then you also need to throw out the other defectors.

This would be extremely stupid. Let Republicans fight and show the people that this pathetic party is unable to govern.

I mean there’s no way anyone but McCarthy wins obviously

Really? I really think it's very possible he fails.
