    If he goes, it's because he needs to be the center of attention.

    Oh I hope he makes it on the "floor", he's from the South,:D!! I didn't know that about him but I'll have to listen to him on youtube. I don't know much of anything about him, but being from the South is a start, same State my fave John Neely Kennedy is from ;).

    I like his positions on issues, I just don’t know if he will be as aggressive as Jordan would have been. I guess we will soon find out.

    Like I said, I don't know much at all about him Thomas. But if he is aggressive I hope it will be for the right things. My opinion of what's right anyway ;)

    I hope he makes it too. I prefer Jordan but I think he needs to keep doing what he’s doing with the Biden investigation and also I believe that Scalise’s personality is more suited as Speaker. I just hope it doesn’t go all wrong and we end up getting McCarthy back.

    Denise, your Sen. Kennedy is a treasure. He says just what he’s thinking and in a very entertaining way.

    I think we talked about this before because I feel the same way about Jim Jordan, he is doing what he loves, otherwise, he would have jumped in back "when". Did he even agree to "be" selected?? I'd be surprised if he did unless the Rs didn't have anyone else.

    I think he did agree to run for the position. I remember being surprised.

    Hmm, I just thought that would always be a definite no for him but who knows what made his decision ;) He would have been good, and as many as wanted him before McCarthy, I wonder if Scalise will make it on the "floor" vote. Guess we'll hear hey ;)

    Thanks so much for sharing this Thomas. I guess I should not be surprised it isn't settled yet. I don't know the other two guys mentioned, I'm thanking God right now it's not a woman so far. That's my religion kicking in, and I'm not sorry for what I believe.
    When/If you hear more on this, please let us know if you are able ;) I have Twitter but don't get on there enough, Denise

    You’re welcome. I’ve never had Twitter either. I got it from one of the two news aggregators I frequent.

    The other one I like is a bit more organized. I think they’re both quite good.
