Today is the big day: House Republicans will vote on which version of DeLay-ism will be their new majority leader: Roy Blunt (R-MS), John Boehner (R-OH), or John Shadegg (R-AZ). If you haven't yet seen the ads on these characters, click here. Meanwhile, The New York Times reports that the Republicans aren't exactly ready for revolution. In a closed-door meeting, they voted 107-to-85 not to open up the seven leadership slots below House Speaker Dennis Hastert (R-IL). And Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) has thrown in his hat for his state colleague, Shadegg.
