The House Majority leader abruptly dropping out of the race to become speaker of the house. Kevin mccarthys stunning announcement left republicans in shock, some bursting into tears. Now the party is scrambling to find a new replacement they can all agree on. Abcs Stephanie Ramos has the latest from washington. Good morning, stephanie. Reporter good morning to you, marci and kendis. Kevin mccarthy will not be John Boehners successor. His withdrawal has republicans in a tizzy. No one saw this coming. In less than 2 half hours Kevin Mccarthy went from a confident candidate for speaker of the house to a withdrawal. I think i shocked some of you. The one thing i found in talking to everybody, if we are going to unite and be strong, we need a new face to help do that. Reporter the decision by the california lawmaker throws House Republicans deeper into chaos. It came after a closed door meeting with the same conservatives who would challenge him on the house floor as speaker leaving republicans especially those who supported him at a loss for boards. Nobody knows anything at this point. Reporter with no obvious replacement for john boehner in sight anything can happen. I think they were stunned. Reporter little known candidates Daniel Webster are still in the running but some have urged paul ryan from wisconsin to throw his hat into the ring even though he says hes still not running. My statement stands. Reporter so what happened . Well, mccarthys big blunder about the House Benghazi Committee didnt help. Everybody thought Hillary Clinton was unbeatable, right . But we put together a Benghazi Special committee, a select committee. What are her numbers today . Her numbers are dropping. Reporter Kevin Mccarthys team figured hed only get about 200 House Republicans to vote for him which is short of the 218 needed. Kendis, marci, back to you.

Former speaker Newt Gingrich is not ruling out a run. 20 years after he held the post gingrich indicated if everyone wanted had him to run he would not turn it down. He did admit it would be an unlikely scenario. Another sign that joe biden may have made up his mind about a possible run for the white house. Sources say reps for biden met with Democratic National committee taffers reportedly briefed on key rules they need to understand if he enters the race. Dr. Ben carsons comments on gun control have caused plenty of controversy and carson just injected new life by linking the disarming of german citizens with the holocaust.

If there had been no gun control laws in europe at that time, would 6 million jews have been slaughtered . I think the likelihood of hitler being able to accomplish his goals would have been greatly diminished if the people had been armed. Reporter the Antidefamation League calling his comments historically inaccurate. Outspoken against gun control at an Oregon CommunityCollege Writing on facebook i never saw a body with bullet holes that was more devastating than taking the right to arm ourselves away and repeatedly insisting he would have rushed the shooter if put in a similar situation. I would not just stand there and let him shoot me. I would say, hey, guys, everybody, attack him. He cant get us all. Reporter but now carson revealing what he did when he was once confronted by a gunman in a fast food restaurant. He did not rush the shooter. The guy comes in, puts the gun in my ribs and i just said, i believe that you want the guy behind the counter. Oh, so you just redirected him to i redirected him. Reporter carson asked about that on cnn. That sounds counter to what youre recommending. A completely different situation. This is somebody who comes into a joint to rob it. Not somebody who see skwenquents killing people. He could have killed you. I did know that. Reporter tom llamas, abc news, las vegas. Stay tuned for Good Morning America later this morning.
