As if on cue the Salem Media machine starts singing the praises of Representative Paul Ryan for Speaker of the House. ~ GOOD TIME TO REMEMBER THIS ~
Hugh Hewitt @hughhewitt If two weeks of upheaval brought us @RepPaulRyan as Speaker, well worth it. Forgotten in days, he'd lead for decade or more. On his terms. 9:14 PM - 8 Oct 2015
No-one needed any further evidence of how insufferably corrupt the progressive republican party has become; however, today is a brutal reminder of just how much the GOPe absolutely despise the base of their own party.
There were three names available for the secret ballot to take place in congress, Kevin McCarthy, Jason Chaffetz and Daniel Webster. While each of the aforementioned names carry both pros and cons, an objective person would have to ask why, if only one name is withdrawn (McCarthy), the House Leadership wouldnt continue with the secret ballot with the two remaining names.
The decision to stop the vote is yet another blast of sunlight to evidence of what almost every Republican Conservative is now fully aware. Namely the progressive GOPe will not allow a leadership election to take place without their chosen progressive as the ultimate winning nominee. The uniparty has a strong grip.

It’s gonna be RULE or RUIN!!!!
NOTHING LESS!!
I heard Mark Steyn (filling in for Rush) describe the procedure as one from a “banana republic.” He was rather adamant that it was an example of what is wrong with the current leadership. He said that John Boehner unilaterally cancelled the election (of who the caucus would support) instead of proceeding with the election. After reflecting, I think he was correct. This article reflects that the game is still “gamed.”

P.S. I now think that since the Motion to Vacate the Chair is a preference item which takes all priority, Rep. Meadows should call the question to get rid of Boehner before he gives in on the budget, debt ceiling, ex-im bank, and other “must” legislation. No Speaker means no action by House.
Bring it on. Better no movement than movement in the wrong direction.

Alive and kicking since 1912.
The Progressive Party of 1912 (nicknamed the Bull Moose Party) was an American political party created by a split in the Republican Party in the presidential election of 1912.
Sounds like a story...The GOPe, the Early Years.
These career politicians want to be around for decades so noone really want to be leader because their life in congress would be shorten
NO PAUL RYAN!!!~ he has NO FIGHT IN HIM!!!
MARSHA BLACKBURN!!
Is she a member of the Freedom Caucus or one of the 35 who support Mark Meadows for Speaker......I think not.
95 percent of them (247 Republicans) or more hung by Boehner through thick and thin and still do unless they choose to stand up and try to take him out now.
We need a rich person who can’t be bought like Rush Limbaugh as Speaker, for example.
Or someone who is anti-corruption and anti-cronyism like Sarah Palin.

We dont need Shekdon Adelson owning the House Speaker !
I’m not sure but seems like I read that Ryan has already said that he will definitely not be a candidate.
In fact I did read that, guess the CRS hasn’t reached full strength yet.

Remember how boner operates.
Brute force.
All he has to do is suggest to Ryan that he might not be chairman of Ways and Means much longer and ......
Remember, John Boehner is the Putin of the GOP!
NOTHING LESS!!
But...he's got a cool exercise video!
