Well, I was wrong about something. Last week I thought that the Republicans in the House of Representatives would have to turn to Democrats for some sort of power-sharing deal.
I should have realized that, as they always do, the moderate Republicans would cave and do what the ultra-conservatives want: pick a hard-right Speaker.
Apologies! And apologies for bring this divisive topic onto my otherwise saintly blog.
