RUSH EXCERPT:
SABATO: "Basically, there is nobody that seems to be able to get the 217 votes needed at least in the republican caucus because virtually everybody is associated with one faction or another and they all hate one another. Maybe a miracle would happen. It would be a real miracle for Jordan if he could manage to lose only four votes on the floor from the Republicans. There’s zero chance of any Democrat voting for Jim Jordan for speaker. Then, what do they do if it’s not Jordan? Well. all kinds of names are being floated. It’s hard to see any of them not losing at least four votes. Some of them would lose dozens of votes."
