Kevin McCarthy would surely land that job.needs to issue an apology,” Watters explained. “It appears we may have gotten a little ahead of ourselves.”
“Yeah, I may have jumped the gun a little bit,” Watters admitted, adding that he’s “sorry” for putting a jinx on the congressman, who had been the odds-on favorite for the post—given Republicans could win back control of the House in the first place, which they only narrowly did.
