Paul Ryan being pushed by Boehner as the only one who can unite the party. Another source says:

Looking like it'll be Ryan if he'll accept.

Maybe McCarthy has seen the writing on the wall and doesn't want to be the one steering the ship when it goes down......

Gowdy would be great, but we need him for Attorney General when the Republicans win back the White House.

Only one reason McCarthy dropped out and that is there wasn't enough votes to elect him. Conservative bunch won't support him but are struggling to find someone else. Gowdy does NOT want the job. I doubt Paul Ryan does either. He's got a young family and the job has a LOT of traveling. I do think Ryan would be good though.

Yes.

He's my Rep.... and a good one. Chairman of the Armed Services Subcommittee so he is not from completely outside the Leadership.

Jeb Hensarling is another Texan who's name was mentioned today. I forget which Committee he chairs.

No more Leaders from Blue States. Too much potential conflict of interest in pushing correct National Priorities and keeping the folks at home happy.

Peter Roskam from Illinois has shown interest in the job before.
He.s responsive to his constituency and would be ok ...but not the bulldog we need.

We need a SOTH from a RED STATE.

How in Hell can a politician be an effective counter to Obama if a majority of his state's voters AGREE with Obama?

There are no "Safe Districts", as long as gerrymandering exists, unless ALL the districts surrounding yours have like minded voters.

NO PAUL RYAN.
