Philip has been doing an excellent job covering the insurgent
efforts of conservatives Mike Pence and John Shadegg to be elected
to House GOP leadership posts this week. It is worth adding that
there is an enthusiastic and increasingly well organized move afoot
in the conservative blogosphere (and backed by much of the
conservative intelligentsia) to support those efforts by Pence and
Shadegg. Later today I will be compiling a list of all those I know
to have done so. There is a chance that such unity might actually
sway some members; we’ll know by week’s end.
