(268,882 posts)A prominent Washington lobbyist close to Rep. Kevin McCarthy, the House minority leader, is warning Republican political consultants that they must choose between working for Rep. Liz Cheney or McCarthy, an ultimatum that marks the full rupture between the two House Republicans.
Jeff Miller, the lobbyist and a confidant of McCarthys dating to their youthful days in California politics, has conveyed this us-or-her message to Republican strategists in recent weeks, prompting one fundraising firm to dissociate itself from Cheney, a Republican from Wyoming.
In response, The Morning Group, a fundraising firm she hired to help prepare for a primary next year against a challenger endorsed by former President Donald Trump, informed her last month they could no longer work on her campaign, according to Republicans familiar with the matter.
Millers warnings illustrate the disintegration of the relationship between the two lawmakers, who began this year serving together in the House Republican leadership. They also underline McCarthys willingness to wield his leadership position to undercut Cheneys reelection and head off an impediment to his claiming the speakership, should Republicans win a House majority next year. Were Cheney to return to Congress, she would loom as a potential instigator of any effort to block McCarthy from leading their party in the House.

(90 posts)is for a significant number of republicans to switch parties or even become independent and caucus with the democrats. I am sure that much stranger things have happened. In fact, that doesn't seem so outside the the realm of possibility that it wouldn't happen. It seems as though Manchin wants to be insulted so that he can either become an independent or whatever. If you were an independent you could free yourself somewhat from the fruitcakes or those that you feel are fruitcakes and regain some dignity whether deserved or not at this late stage.
