And you can be sure he’s only stepping down now because the votes have been more than secured for another donor class-approved, big-government, amnesty-pimping RINO, i.e. McCarthy. We’re trading Fidel for Raul.

Not 'his job' to give. It still has to be voted on. That could change everything.

Yup. The GOP establishment is going to parachute in uber-liberal McCarthy.

The fix is in.

It was no secret that Cantor wanted to be the next Speaker.

Escort him to the door now, you know, like many businesses do so those employees don’t screw anything up during the last few weeks.

Mark Levin was going off tonight, saying McCarthy is no different than Cantor. Just 10 points lower on the IQ scale.

His base appears to be Silicon Valley and the cheap labor express.

It does not match the public evidence.

Pelosi - party lost control

Hastert - party lost control

Gingrich - party lost 5 seats
- unusual for the party not controlling the White House to lose seats in an off-year election
- Gingrich had staked the election on Clinton’s impeachment.

Foley - party lost control and he lost his seat

Wright - resigned the speakership in the face of an ethics investigation; resigned his seat after selection of Foley.

O’Neill - did not run for re-election
Albert - did not run for re-election
McCormack - did not run for re-election

Is there ANY instance of a speaker staying on during his successor of the same party’s term? I don’t think so.

Ohio’s primary in 2014 was prior to Virginia’s.

Be sure you get to his computer before he has it wiped. We know that he and old Mitch have cut big bad deals with the Marxist in Chief.

Here is the deal.

There have been several [planted]stories predicting a shutdown will no longer be a probability because the conservative wing of the party has been handed a victory.

It has also been reported Boehner will get a clean resolution passed. In return Planned Parenthood funding will be dealt with using reconciliation.

My gut reactions:

Who are the idiots trying to pass the idea that Boehner’s resignation will make slice & dice, organ harvesting and profiteering from aborted and not yet aborted babies okay?

Boehner has lied to GOP members of Congress before a vote he wanted passed. He has a track record. Think he won't do it again? Anyone believing he would keep his word should be impeached on grounds of being a moron.

I’m not understanding the logic. We’re supposed to be happy Boehner screws over the country because we’re promised he’ll be punished later?

So if your kid asks you to give him permission to cut class and go drinking with his friends because he’ll agree to let you punish him later, a parent is supposed to agree to that?

Welcome to morality in the beltway, where everything’s up for negotiation.

Hear, hear. Mike Lee needs to be heard from more, and this is a good position for him.
