2. He knows they wont agree and if they did then he would want the office, but he

knows it wont happen

[toddwv]

16. He likely has further political aspirations.

So he would invest alot of political capital by becoming Speaker. A failed Speakership can easily end a political career. Here's hoping!

[randys1]

18. He intends on being president after 8 yrs of the next Democrat, and he knows a

contentious time as speaker will derail that.

13. Concerning another republican...

Marcus Antonius:

"For Brutus, as you know, was Caesar's angel.
Judge, O you gods, how dearly Caesar lov'd him!
This was the most unkindest cut of all;
For when the noble Caesar saw him stab,
Ingratitude, more strong than traitors' arms,
Quite vanquish'd him: then burst his mighty
heart. . . ."

Julius Caesar Act 3, scene 2, 181–186

14. One of the three holding knives is Jay Leno

He's not a member of Congress, but backstabbing is in his nature.

[L. Coyote]

15. This is what happens with no knife control around here.

The problem is never the knife, it is always the artist holding the knife. :rolf:

[d_legendary1]

17. The GOP will be behind him!

And in front, the sides, and even where the sun don't shine!
