Boehner needs to be the one who manages cost, being no one else will. Hes already helped diminish private sector opportunities by going along with the Democrats tax increase.
As long as the House GOP stands together, the GOP has the ultimate in bargaining power in three of the most critical areas:
1) Since the RATS refuse to pass a budget - or even debate one - the GOP House holds ALL the cards in passing Continuing Resolutions year after year,
2) The House holds all the cards in raising the Debt Ceiling, notwithstanding the RAT huff and puff about the Constitution requiring clown to pay USA debt, and
3) Sequestration - first time they stood firm since retaking the House in 2010.
Boner has minimal negotiation skills (I was a fairly good one with Government contracts, and Trump certainly qualifies as one). Further Boner and his party are absolute losers when it comes to getting the message out, and they are up against the masters of messaging (it helps to have your own propaganda machine working for you 24/7). I don't think the GOP knows what the party stands for anymore - ranting about going after women, black, and hispanics. SELL CONSERVATISM!! Ronald Reagan was able to get the message out with the same left media clobbering him, in fact I would argue Reagan was more disadvantaged then in 2013 since there was no alternative media. Only three TV networks.
Get a clue Republicans - this is the first good thing you did fiscally,
What ever happened to the strategy the GOP once upon a time floated about DEFUNDING Obamacare? They are in control of the APPROPRIATIONS. The Republicans seem to make promises just like the RAT party and do not follow through. The problem is career politicians do not work for "WE THE PEOPLE".

As bad as Boehner has been I think the bigger problem is in the GOP Senate. McConnell is just a dead fish. He has made no attempt to tie the kenyan to the Democratic majority senate. Barely any fire directed at Reid for his shenanigans,etc, etc. No fight in McConnell. He is useless compared to how Reid was when he was minority leader.
The GOP will continue to lose if the leadership does not push back against the marxist attacks. Merely standing up and asking for another is not good enough.
