I really hate the Republican Loser Party

This country is going to collapse and the GOPe is going to do nothing to even try and slow it down

Pathetic. I expected better from Bachmann especially.

The Republican Party no longer needs my vote, evidently, so it no longer has to have it.

The only things that stands between freedom and a new gun ban are the House Republicans; heaven help us.

It is truly time to think about forming a new party and dismantling the corrupt Grand Old Party.

It was painful to watch... even comical at times.
Reelect the weakest, lamest duck. Sheeeesh.

No surprise.

They are Pubbies. They fold. That is what they do. It is their nature.

But hey, Boehner has promised to get tough with Obama, no more one-on-one meetings. Tough talk. Tough talk with no backbone.

==

Of course, now the 14 or so who showed some backbone will have 2 years of reprisals from the GOPe leadership. They will lose any status and positions they held.

I think it was to prevent Pelosi from becoming Speaker again!

Bachman has betrayed the Tea Party. Like Fredo, she is dead to me.

Might as well have Pelosi, it’s the same result in the end.

Recount!

Seriously, did anyone think the outcome would be any different?

No matter the party,they all play Lucy to conservatives trying to kick the football down the field.

We are betrayed constantly.

It is time let the GOP Whig out, and have our own party, our own convention, our own candidates.

The proverbial handwriting has been on the wall for a long time.

Next cave: gun control, marriage and the debt ceiling. The Dems must be ecstatic.

Yup, we have three more Republicans now to put on our unacceptable list? Do we have any Republicans left who are acceptable?

Yes, along with everyone else that voted for Boner. I am finished the Republican Party. He is a cry baby, sorry excuse for a man, that lacks the spine to stand on conservative principles.
