Wishful thinking, I'm afraid.

IF 29 R's were to vote for some candidate other than Boner, I would expect as many D's as necessary to defect and vote FOR him.

I believe the deal has already been struck between WH and Congress - Obama continues to rule by decree while Congress flails around in gridlock. Nothing changes except who gets blamed (the R's)

I’ve already contacted Marsha Blackburn’s office and told them to tell her that if she votes FOR Boehner I’ll work my butt off to primary her in 2016.

I’m sorry, I don’t see this happening. They will cave and reelect Boehner and allow Obama to continue wiping his a$$ with the Constitution..

That picture you posted on Nancy is very scary!

What I want to know is if she can blink her eyes?

Another interesting thought is what would happen if some of the conservatives would vote with the Rats for Ms. Clueless.

Boy I don't know the rules for sure, but Erik Erickson had a guest on ( or was it Erik ) explaining this... If Boenher doesn't get 218 ( and for that matter San-Fran Nan ) it is essentially a null vote and Johnny B has to run again or someone has to put their name in the hat and get the 218. If I get this correct, you can't have San-Fran Nan as speaker, It is not about her vote she's not in the majority...

The Speaker only needs a majority of the Representatives that actually vote for an individual.

How did they ever dump Newt, then his replacement?(Name escapes me at the moment)

Character matters.

I submit that we will know how many conservatives are in the House AFTER the vote.

Gingrich was force to step down or face ethics charges regarding a book deal.

Bob Livingston, next up, stepped down due to 'zipper' problems and a mistress or a few.

Would this be 29 conservatives and all democrats? I may be mistaken, but both sides of the aisle vote on speakership....right?

If this is indeed the case, what would keep democrats from voting for Boehner seeing as he’d be a fairly productive “useful idiot”?

"May it be so, Boehner has got to go!"

------------------------------------------------------------

This is such a no-brainer
we must overthrow Boehner.
End his stinking gutless con
and say goodbye to little John.

I concur. I believe the new 29 have all probably already been suborned.

hey do not sweat it. there are times that it is easier to read the writer’s intent overlook a little messed up words than split words over it. No fellow freepers will not think you graduated from Harvard or MIT, because you can at least read and do math.

The GOP must decide whether it is the alternative to the Democrats, or merely the ‘rat-lite party.

Boehner is Rat-lite. He is not conservative. It’s past time for the Weeper to go!
