So, as of tonight, how does mccarthys path to the speakership, how does it look like he will get there? >> its really uncertain at this point. this is precisely the concern that mccarthy and his allies had in the run-up to the midterms. they spent a ton of money to try to build what they called a governing majority, they wanted 230 seats, 235 seats or even 240 seats and i got probably 222 seats and that means to become elected speaker you need to have 218 votes on january 3 so more than four rep...

Republicans say on the record that they are not going to support him for speaker and right now he can only lose potentially three or four on the floor when it comes to the floor vote for the speakers gavel. he has a real math problem. now, we say this now, everybody is a no until all of a sudden they are a yes, right? we saw this with nancy pelosi and how she was able to pick off and sort of buy out a lot of democrats who opposed her for speaking the last time around but this is a different game...

Political will and politics, let me quickly get this in there. will kevin mccarthy actually becomes speaker? recent politico headline we can show you here that perhaps mccarthys math problem gets tougher. what hes pointing to, if you look at the five republicans we can show you that vowed that they are not going to support mccarthy if the current trend holds, he would end up having a 4-seat majority. he would see they are, those are five republicans and it would be enough to depose mccarthy. wha...

Heal. what happened? >> well, i think he realized he didnt have the votes to be speaker. he has a math problem. republicans will go into the majority with a four-vote majority and right now hes got at least half a dozen republicans who said im a hard no or leaning against voting for him and that doesnt mean everyone else will vote for him either on the republican side, so hes doing everything he can right now to woo some of these conservatives that think he wont be hard enough on the biden admin...

He did get the support from the house republican conference earlier in the week, when 188 of his members voted to nominate him to be the speaker. but that doesnt make you the speaker. in order to get the gavel, you need to be elected by a majority of the full house. that means 218 votes that youll need in january to get there. right now, hes working behind the scenes to lock down the votes. but he has a problem. a math problem, that hes trying to resolve. because there are some members of the ha...
