  1. Paul Krugman sizes up Kevin McCarthy's dilemma with the tip of the tail wagging the rest of the GOP dog.

    Why the speaker of the House cannot do his job

    McCarthy is a weak leader, especially compared with Nancy Pelosi, his formidable predecessor. But even a superb leader would probably be unable to transcend the dynamics of a party that has been extremist for a generation but has now gone beyond extremism to nihilism.

    If the GOP were anything like a normal party, McCarthy would give up on the right-wingers, gather up the saner Republican representatives — it would be misleading to call them “moderates” — and make a deal with Democrats. But that would almost surely cost him the speakership, and in general, more or less the whole GOP is terrified of the hard-liners, so the party’s positions end up being dictated by its most extreme faction.

  2. Normally, I’d object to a sexist portrayal of a female ‘s behavior.

    However, she pretty much did exactly that in public last weekend. Any reasonable expectations of privacy are out the window.
     

  3. This morning I watched Margaret Brennans’ interview of Ohio GOP Congressman Mike Turner. I was left wondering if Nancy Pelosi was the minority leader. 

    That pre-programmed GQP Blabberbot mentioned her name in almost every sentence. I gathered from his rhetoric that he was trying to imply that Nancy is still calling the shots.
