Why would any Democrat vote for McCarthy to remain as the Speaker? Would you expect any Republican to vote for Pelosi?

SPC Jeff Daley, PhD - From what I read, McCarthy never even reached out to the Democrats. They certainly weren't going to vote for him for free; he'd have to negotiate that with them (power-sharing, budget, Biden inquiry, etc.). I guess he calculated that he had a better chance of winning over a handful of Republicans than he did winning over a handful of Democrats.

Your right LTC Kevin B., there isn't any reason to work together to benefit "we the people" unless another carrot if offered.

Absolutely.. Political enemies would always vote in a matter that harms the other side... They're an enemy and that is a strategic advantage.
