At least John Boehner will postpone his resignation. This EPISODE of the crisis in leadership in the Republican Party should have taught the Republican extremists a direly needed lesson. Speaker Boehner should realize he now has a free hand to resolve disagreements about legislation going forward. If that was his thought from the beginning, then well done.
The Republican's culled their incumbents. This is the result. The USA has an incompetent House. There are more investigations with absolutely no resolve and repeating votes over and over is a crisis.
The members in line for the Speakership are not qualified to be in those positions. All the Republican leadership need to resign and allow new members take their place after the vote is finalized. But, I mean from the ground up in the House.

...McCarthy,(click hear) the majority leader who's favored to become the next speaker of the
House, has energetically nurtured GOP legislators in the House since he
was elected to Congress nine years ago. He recruited many of the young
conservatives who helped the Republicans retake control of the House in
the 2010 elections. They owe him a lot.
But all of which will count for not much if McCarthy can't find a way to balance the competing demands in the Republican-controlled House. Restive conservatives are seeking a more aggressive stance against President Barack Obama, while others feel a pragmatic need for compromise to get things done in the era of oh-so-divided government....
