@cnnbrk What happens if the House cannot break this impasse?

Are there any remedies?

@douglaswelch @cnnbrk Back in 1855-56 it took 133 votes over two months for them to pick, so I'd say buckle in for the ride at this point

I don’t think that is a viable choice in our time.

It is a tremendous national security risk to not have a functioning Congress, especially considering that the speaker is #3 in the line of succession.

@douglaswelch oh I totally agree, and it was disgusting watching the vote tonight to postpone until tomorrow. Totally irresponsible.
