McCarthy exit baffles conservatives who were ready to deal


(Worthy News) – Conservatives were ready to negotiate a deal with Kevin McCarthy to perhaps deliver the votes that would make him the next House Speaker when he suddenly dropped out of the race Thursday.

“I was surprised as anybody that he pulled out,” said Rep Raul Labrador, R-Idaho.

Rep. Mick Mulvaney, R-S.C., another conservative, said he spoke to McCarthy just minutes before the announcement, but McCarthy didn’t breathe a word about dropping out. But instead of getting a conservative pitch from McCarthy, he announced he wasn’t the right person for the job.

“We are just as stunned as you are,” Mulvaney said after the announcement. [ Source ]
