I can't see how. Stranger things have happened, though.

Let's see how long it lasts this time. Could be gone in a month's time.

I hate being right about politics.

My prediction will probably not age any better than the many others to date.

With three and a half weeks until government shutdown I think the Repugs will use up at least two of these remaining weeks before getting their act together and reinstalling Puss — I mean, McCarthy.

I predict that the current nominee will be speaker. He's solidly pro-Russia / anti-US, and he's an election denier and all-around extremist. But he's obscure enough that the relatively mainstream faction of Republicans can pretend he's not as bad as he really is. Of course, this is a guess based on one newspaper article plus the timing. There are lots of possibilities for exactly which and when, so I expect to probably be wrong, no matter which I pick. But this is the guess I'm going with.

I rather suspect the Maga crowd would have preferred 'winners' Herod Antipas and Tiberius. Many of them would have had an arrangement with the local tax collector which involved squeezing their own taxes out of someone lower down the pecking order.

@cw,

Jesus was a radical socialist Jew. It's not as if he'd be the second coming off Ronald Reagan...

They should just turn this into a real hoot-enanny. Heh. Speaking of another one bites the dust ... if you ever get the chance to see the fabulous Queen tribute act out of Australia, Queen: It's a Kind of Magic, do yourself a favour and buy tickets. That goes double if you've never actually seen the one and only Queen perform live. These four guys come alive on stage as Queen using the costumes, mannerisms and set-up just like Queen. It's really uncanny. They are touring all over the place and they usually come back the same venues over and over, by popular demand. The theatre here in Kitchener where they play sells out every time ... Queen: It's A Kind Of Magic
