We know that he won't be getting any Democratic votes and numerous Republicans voted for anyone else. That needs to continue. And Hakeem Jeffries got more votes than Jordan did.

Suggesting Romney confused me, but like you said, that may have been the intent Rhiannon12866 Oct 2023 #2

Victoria Spartz R, voted for Thomas Massie of KY Captain Zero Oct 2023 #3

From what we've heard, a lot of Republicans voted for anyone but Jordan Rhiannon12866 Oct 2023 #4

Massie is a complete a-hole Bev54 Oct 2023 #7

Oh ok. I'll trust what you say over Captain Zero Oct 2023 #19

Good Grief! A vociferous NO from me... Rhiannon12866 Oct 2023 #8

That would be a big no on Cheney and I would be calling dem reps to make that clear. Bev54 Oct 2023 #6

The Republicans have serious resentments against both Cheney and Romney Rhiannon12866 Oct 2023 #9

Yes and while it would bring some satisfaction to piss them off, Cheney would be a big mistake. Bev54 Oct 2023 #10

They'd never vote for her or anyone who was on the J6 Committee. Rhiannon12866 Oct 2023 #12

Hakeem Jeffries onecaliberal Oct 2023 #11

I fear that Jordan will eventually get the votes, like McCarthy did. CentralMass Oct 2023 #20

That would be the worst possible outcome. Rhiannon12866 Oct 2023 #21

Given the choices, or rather lack thereof, Abolishinist Oct 2023 #22

The only thing is that Romney is currently very unpopular with Republicans, as is Liz Cheney Rhiannon12866 Oct 2023 #23

Well, as I understand it, all he would need would be 7 votes from the R's Abolishinist Oct 2023 #24

Well, he does have experience, but he's also a Senator. Rhiannon12866 Oct 2023 #25

The Senator part is what I'm not sure of. Abolishinist Oct 2023 #27

From what he's said, I'm not sure if Romney would be willing to put himself out there Rhiannon12866 Oct 2023 #28
