PV2 Larry Sellnow This ain't a football game. Its politics and real politicans can craft a deal.
Look the deal is staring him right in the face and if he doesn't make the move he won't be speaker.

Since maybe in the history books but some Republicans are pissed off that Congressman McCarthy and other Republicans signed off on this messed up Omnibus Bill full of pork and earmarks.
I guess we'll have to have tactical patience on this one.
Some Republicans are fed up with getting a 4,000 page Bill given to them 24 hours before the vote and then told to vote for before the Christmas recess. I can understand where some of these people are coming from because the incoming Congress can't do anything about the bill until the next bill but the pork is already been dispensed and signed into law.

I suppose you can’t have change unless you fight for it. And everyone in politics fights for power regardless of what side of the isle you stand. Power is the name of the game in DC. They really don’t care about their constituents, they believe in what’s in it for themselves!
