Bachmann found that out 2 years ago after her short-lived rebellion. They had to votes to unseat Boehner. They folded. Boehner was so appreciative that he took her chairmanship away from her.

Well, the polls say 60% want him gone, which makes them conservative, so that’s very encouraging.

I love the results, but surprised. Seems like so many good GOP voters are just go along get along, as evidenced by the past two presidential primaries where there is a fair amount of uninformed decisions made. I am happy to see 60% are in tune enough to realize how bad this lack of leadership has been...and that 2014 happened despite the party power players, not because of them.

It does not matter. I live in GA’s 7th congressional dist. The most conservative in the state. Our little RINO rep Rob Woodall will never fail to vote for Boehner. He will never fail to vote however Boehner tells him on any legislation. Yet for some inexplicable reason we just re-elected him for 2 more years. Hopefully the last 2 years.

The scary part is that if Barry and Joe get caught in an avalanche or something guess who the next President is?

Help me out. Can anyone name a single good thing Boehner has done? Can anyone name a single good thing they think he will do in 2015?

The poll only matters as it influences district by district. If it’s a national poll including voters currently in districts that have elected Democrat reps, it won’t really matter.

The only way this poll makes a difference is if the 60% level holds for each district currently or to be represented by a Republican.

The GOPe doesn’t give a damn. They’ve got corporate donors to service.

Get rid of this bum!

Joe Straus depends on his “Democrat” friends to remain Speaker in Austin. People in TX don’t even know that.

People in GA probably know nothing about Rep. Woodall and just vote for a name they recognize.

No Woodall was John Linder’s senior aide so when Linder retired he endorsed Woodall to succeed him. I personally voted for I think Jodi Hice in the primary but then we all voted for Woodall in the General. We gave him 2 more years in 2014 and he has immediately turned on us. I think we are going to primary him next go around in 2016.

Evidently our representatives don’t care what the people want.
