The device: A simple two-paragraph pledge, spearheaded by Rep. Mike Flood (R-Neb.), to vote “yea” on the floor for whoever wins the House Republican conference’s backing in the initial secret-ballot election scheduled for Tuesday. To pick up more commitments, Flood is organizing a bloc of Republicans to withhold support from candidates unless they press their backers to sign the pledge.

Awwww, he's so cute, look at lil' Mike Flood playing politics.

Yea, no this won't work in the slightest. But it is cute. Like a 6 year old drawing. Or a child still believing in Santa.
