McCarthy: An Ongoing Serial Orgasm For Democrats!

Frankly, Republicans should have pulled McCarthy as their nominee. Instead, they got to enjoy Chinese water torture, or if you prefer, political death by a thousand cuts. So, in the end, rather than having a strong speaker with not inconsiderable power, they've ended up with a virtual weakling who gave the shop away just to get the job. In short, McCarthy is and was that desperate.

For Republicans to win in 2024, they need a series of huge to big political successes that pass in the House and get thru the Senate. The more legislative wins they get, the better their chance of taking the Senate and the Presidency.

But now, with McCarthy in charge, as others have rightly said, the man has been politically castrated. The new de facto speaker is called the Freedom Caucus, and their collective talent as a wrecking ball, both internally and externally, is never to be underestimated. These next two years will be Political Hell for the Speaker and his closest entourage. 

The mantra will be nothing is ever good enough for the FC. They will serially demand going forward and break the institution if necessary. That's the mentality of Representatives that are on an ongoing search and destroy mission -- not just against Democrats -- but who also are fully prepared to eat their own in the process should that become necessary. For the FC, the means fully justify the ends.

Meanwhile, the public, largely already adrift from Trump for obvious reasons, will enlarge their collective sense of contempt to include many House Republicans. Like I said in the title, this can only eventually lead to The Big O for Democrats. Once again, Republicans will do it to themselves, just like Newt did. And the rest as they say will be history.

Just catch Act One: we all already know how Gaetz really won't be resigning now that McCarthy is finally Speaker. Nor will, by some strange coincidence, any other FC members. Surprise, surprise.  

As I said, a great day for Democrats, with seemingly many more to come in the weeks, months and years ahead.
