I’ve always understood that the Speaker doesn’t have to be an elected Rep. This would send shock waves to the center of the Liberal and RINO (redundant?) establishments. That it could be so.

Electing Allen West as speaker has a lot more value for America than shot waves. He is one of the few people not intimidated by the media and is willing to stand up to Obama. In my opinion he would be an excellent choice and would give leadership and courage to a ravaged and disjointed (R) majority.

Ironically, some of his greatest potential might lie in the fact that he is not an elected member of congress and doesn't have to kiss butt everyday worrying about his bid for reelection.
