It's averaging 6-8 seconds per name — they should be done in under an hour.
If the As were any indication, McCarthy has this wrapped up.

She clearly did talk to them. But this is sort of like those Bernie quotes this morning. Yes, if you listen to the whole thing (or watch the whole video Warren put up) you'd see that the whole thing isn't nearly as damning as the bits everyone quotes.
But most people aren't going to watch the whole Sanders interview or the entire video Warren posted on Twitter. If you can't convey it well in a few short sentences, that's still a genuine issue.
There's also WaPo's Twitch channel if you want the added value of Twitch chat.

I hope they play these clips of McConnell non-stop the next time a Dem POTUS is in office and is being investigated for what type of mustard they use on their hotdogs.
Someone should do a study on names to see which are more likely to be elected in.
Mostly. There's been quite a few Republicans voting for Jordan instead of McCarthy.
Here's a running and live list of everyone who DIDN'T vote for Pelosi or McCarthy

Flag for you all to consider while we're enjoying this:
[ ] Syria and Afghanistan retreats
[ ] This Trump Supporter Spy Prisoner Thing
[ ] This 'Russia was right to invade Afghanistan' propaganda he just drops out of nowhere
And surely a dozen others. But these three within the past week all tell me not just that Trump is actively pursuing Russian interests, but -- especially with this potential prisoner exchange thing -- he might very well be actively coordinating with Russia and likely Putin himself. This is still somehow mindblowing to me, and I'm comforted very little by the idea that Mueller is surely looking at these exact things.

Treat it like trump's response to sexual harassment claims and say trump isn't attractive enough to harass
Today I voted "present" in the vote for Speaker of the House, consistent with my eight-year push for new Democratic leadership. Now that we are back in the majority, I did not vote for a rival candidate because there are none.
I am very excited about the new Democratic majority. Finally, the Republican monopoly on power in Washington is over.
Now, one half of one of the three branches of government will be able to stand up to President Trump when he is wrong.
This is the way America's 200-year-old two-party system of checks and balances is supposed to work: speaking truth to power and competing to help the average voter.
We should use this opportunity to help all Americans have a brighter future. If we do a good job getting America back on track, we will more likely win the White House and a majority-Democratic U.S. Senate in 2020.
I hope our new House leadership will chart a sensible course, and show all of America that we are up to the job.
You seem upset, honey.
1. You have me confused for someone who thinks Bernie is a viable candidate for 2020 and you're arguing based on this straw-man. I challenge you to find a single post of mine expressing support for Bernie in that way. I supported him in the 2016 primaries and early-voted for Clinton in the GE.
2. A bullshit insinuation of misogyny based on nothing.
3. See #1.
4. Effectively responding to Trump on social media is a necessary evil thanks to the way the media covers "quality memery". Effectively navigating sensitive issues without handing the opposition free PR wins is another prerequisite. Whether or not one likes those facts is immaterial: they're true all the same.
She needs 216.
Some of the ones who said they'd vote against her have.
Some of them have voted for her.
She'll be fine.
I mean we all know it, but when you see it.....it's really something.
Thanks guys, I was getting worried there for a minute.
First Asian American to vote for Speaker while not being a member of the House
Rachael Bade @rachaelmbade
John Lewis, the civil rights icon, recenly asked his colleagues NOT to vote for him for speaker. He is a Nancy supporter through and through. Some freshmen were thinking abt calling out his name too ->

Lynn Sweet @lynnsweet
That was Ron Kind of #Wisconsin voting for Georgia Rep John Kewis for speaker
Republicans have never and will never care about their poor constituents.
