Still 37%? What’s wrong with these people?

No. Let it fall on him and soon because it’s the only way to persuade Independents (now 42% of the electorate, 2/3’s of which are conservative) that the GOP is capable of righting itself.

In the case of McConnell it is the fault of stupid Senate rules regarding seniority.

In the case of Boehner, he was the ‘Old Man’ when the new Tea Party majority came into the scene in 2010. He persuaded them to ‘give him a chance’. They were deceived to say the least. By 2014 he had consolidated his control over campaign funds which are vital to a member’s reelection.

McConnell and Boehner are ruling party plants that exist to keep control of Congress in the hands of K Street.

The two of them have joined with the US Chamber of Commerce to destroy the Republican Party and any chance we had of saving our country.

Boner, McTurtle and the GOPe ARE THE PROBLEM.

We have no opposition to Bigger and Bigger Government.

These guys just protect the right flank of the Uniparty.

They are the #1 problem. Forget Leftists. We know them, they will hold 47% of America.

Boner and McTurtle always block any potentially effective attack on the Goliath State. Kill them; politically of course.

I do doubt that 23 percent of the voters have ever heard of John Boehner.

“If Boehner and McConnell are hated so bad, why in hell did those who are our supposed representatives pup them in those two positions?”

Well, I have been wondering the same thing for some time. By guess is that Senators and Representatives fear their respective leader(s) more than they do their Constituants.
