McCarthy finally won in round 15 after 14 embarrassing losses and a near physical fight on the House floor. He had to concede, concede and concede some more. We'll see soon enough what positions he sold away for votes.
Rightist news is doing their best to spin the 14 loses as nothing much, just business as usual and this doesn't reflect back on McCarthy's ineffectiveness and poor leadership skills.
You can imagine what the Rightist headlines would have been if Nancy Pelosi had lost even one round for Speaker when the Democrats had control, let alone 14.

right again
