Paul Ryan isn’t conservative enough to be Speaker
10/13/15 12:40pm by Jon Green

After Kevin McCarthy announced that he was taking himself out of the running to succeed John Boehner as Speaker of the House, all eyes turned to Paul Ryan. Ryan, we were told, was the only person who could unite the Republican Party — the only “serious” member of the House who was also conservative enough to bring the unserious-by-implication House Freedom Caucus along with him.

But for all of Ryan’s conservative bona fides, some of his colleagues are declaring him to be as unacceptable as Kevin McCarthy was and as Boehner was before him. According to the New York Times, “[Ryan] is being criticized on issues ranging from a 2008 vote to bail out large banks to his longstanding interest in immigration reform to his work on a bipartisan budget measure. On Sunday night, the Drudge Report — a prime driver of conservative commentary — dedicated separate headlines to bashing Mr. Ryan on policy positions.”

The idea that Paul Ryan, whose name is synonymous with repealing and replacing Medicare, is somehow not conservative enough to be Speaker of the House has been dubbed “insane” by conservative commentators……who have no understanding of just how conservative the House Republican caucus has become
