c-span should put a basketball-lookin' scoreboard at the bottom between votes
hahaha we're already up to 12? we've beaten the 1923 record then! McCarthy is officially the worst nominee for Speaker since before the Civil War! let's see if we can knock out the next contender at the 44th vote
yeah lmao. he's at 214 votes of 217 required so we're gonna move to vote 13 soon
we can measure this a different way and consider him also the 5th worst contender for Speaker of all time, next up is 22 votes, caused by the sudden resignation of Henry Clay in 1821, when he decided he'd rather return to his law office instead of be Speaker lol
its ok usamerican government. ever since radioshack went out of business i dont know where to get a speaker neither
yesterday the BBC ran an article practically clapping their hands with glee over how this is the worst it's been since the civil war and i was like damn guys chill out don't sound so excited for horror lmao
