[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe it's already in the thread, but isn't there some sense in several Ds giving votes to McCarthy for concessions instead of him bowing to the RW? [/quote] No, because as much as it would be great to have a centrist coalition to block the far right, the issue is that no one trusts rank and file Republicans to honor any concessions made for the Speakership. McCarthy does not have much authority over his fellow Republicans, therefore any deal he makes with Democrats would be just him and a few colleagues: it's too risky, even though from a theoretical numbers perspective, it could be enough for a majority.[/quote]
