And that's the truth. You're not going to use the position to balance power, nor are you not going to be able to use it as a springboard into a more powerful position. Being Speaker of the House is worse then being a snake wrangler dealing with a burlap bag full of cottonmouths... not that there's any cotton in their mouths. You see the Tea Party branch of the GOP, for some reason only the stupid know, decided to remove the word 'compromise' from their vocabulary. In fact things have gotten so bad they can't have a decent conversation among themselves. All they want to do is demand and blame. Kevin McCarthy (not the actor), the presumptive Speaker stepped in a pile of shit when he admitted Benghazi was nothing more then a ruse to attack Clinton. OOPS!

Now he's practically on the running to save his political career. And any smart politician would think twice before applying for the position since no one is going to be able to rein in the crazies on the far right. In fact, I have no doubt, that the party has, indeed, achieved escape velocity and is no spiraling out towards Jupiter... or maybe Saturn. This is how a political party dies. Messy, ain't it?
