“Louie is a member of the ship-them-home-in-boxcars caucus, and I respect that,” Mulvaney said. But he added that a chairman must be able to represent the views of the conference as a whole.

RSC members elected Flores over Rep. Mick Mulvaney, who had implied Flores would be a shill for leadership and promised that under his own stewardship, the group could cause problems for Speaker John Boehner and his team. Flores won on an 84-57 vote on the second ballot. The first ballot had Flores one vote shy of an outright victory, with 71 votes to Mulvaney's 55 and Louie Gohmert's 16.

The ad will premiere tonight at the PNAE, FWD.us, and U.S. Chamber of Commerce event, “#iCodeImmigration: Accelerating Immigration Reform,” in Washington DC, featuring Rep. Mario Diaz-Balart (R-FL-25) and Rep. Mick Mulvaney (R-SC-5).
It is Mulvaney's own fault he lost. Conservative alternative who buys the Lindsey Graham line and hangs out with fiscal heavyweights like Diaz-Balart and Paul Ryan.
