And whom do you recommend as the Speaker of the House? I have no favorites, but am frustrated at everyone calling for Bonhner’s replacement without naming whom they want as his successor, other than “NOT Pelosi.” :)

I can tell you a few more names NOT to support - Ryan, Cantor, McCarthy, Lankford, McMorris Rogers, King, for starters. I, personally, would favor any of a number of conservative firebrands but they are unlikely to garner sufficient support from the wider GOP caucus. I'm ok with leaving the choice to those who see these people in action on a daily basis as long as it's not someone from current leadership.

An orange juice can, could replace Boehner. He and McConnell are easily replaceable. I would pick Rep. McClintock from California who accurately and intelligently explained how not raising the debt ceiling would only cause default if Obama refused to pay the interest and principal on the debt. Of course, the GOP media completely ignored this fact.

I don’t see how the answer to that question affects the need to replace every one of those House members listed.

With more conservatives, they ought to be putting someone with more guts than is currently there.

I think it should be Steve King. He has a moderate position on the farm bill, ethanol, wind and other issues so he could play that to get enough votes and is from a swing state like Boehner and Cantor.
