“Scalise is in a conservative district and has a conservative voting record.

My guess is the establishment doesn’t want him.”

My guess is that after his actions with the Cromnibus, somebody in Louisiana leaked some information to take out one of Boehner’s leadership team.

We’ll see which is true. Keep in mind this is coming up right before the new congress convenes. I’d love to see a whip race. Remember that Newt Gingrich became speaker because he won a whip race.

We need to have a Speaker race.

Nope,
Scalise was the snake who did Boneheads dirty work and pushed out the conservative reps left over from
Hastert .

He is the snake.
Good riddance !
