On Forbes Newsroom<\/em>, California Democratic Congressman Brad Sherman floated the idea of former President George W. Bush becoming the next Speaker of the House.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe could come back,\u201d Sherman said. \u201cObviously, I\u2019m not a real fan of how the Iraq War went, but I would think that any reasonable Republican would be somebody that Democrats could work with \u2014 if it was part of a system where you didn\u2019t have five of the most extreme Republicans blocking important legislation and saying, \u2018If you bring that to the floor for a vote, we\u2019ll knock you out of your Speakership.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

Sherman said that Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH), the GOP conference\u2019s choice, would be \u201camong one of the worst Speakers that we could have,\u201d though Jordan would be politically useful for Democrats due to being a \u201cdisaster.\u201d<\/p>\n

Since the ouster of Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), Republican lawmakers have been unable to elect a new Speaker of the House.<\/p>\n

The GOP conference\u2019s first choice, Rep. Steve Scalise (R-LA), was chosen behind closed doors late last week, then abruptly pulled out of the running.<\/p>\n

Now, Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) has been elected the House Republican Conference choice, but faces opposition from moderate Republicans.<\/p>\n

Former President Bush is not a sitting member of Congress \u2013 and has not held elected office since January 2009 \u2013 but that does not necessarily count him out for Speaker, as one does not need to be a member of the House of Representatives to serve in that leadership position.<\/p>\n
