If he doesn’t find a way to hold the line on the AWB and the Dream Act, he’s done in 2014-one way or the other. there’s no reason for voting anymore at that point.
We were done when Boehner said on October 25th, 2010, “ We will not shut the government down” Took the option off the table and from that point forward, it has been easy for the dems to run the clock out and tehn the republicans cave on the last second of the last day.
They think they are really tough on spending because they wait until the end to cave, but, each time, THEY CAVE, and that’s all that counts.
Hey John - other than the GOPe - the rest of the world is laughing at you. Obama and Pelosi are laughing the loudest.
I'm honestly much more worried about the Dream Act (or even a much more comprehensive Amnesty) because I fear a lot of Republicans have bought the media line that they must pander for the Hispanic vote. As for the Assault Weapons Ban, It barely passed in 1994 with a huge democrat majority, I don't see it going anywhere in a majority Republican house. In fact I don't see it even making it to the floor, considering the committee where it must originate is stacked with some of the most pro-gun Republicans. In fact I will be surprised if it makes it through the Senate without being severely gutted, if at all, the Senate has 7 democrat senators from red states that are up for reelection in 2014, who won't want to touch gun control with a ten foot poll.
I hope that Rep. Boehner won’t run, in 2014. He’s been in Congress since 1991, and 24 years is too long for anyone to be in Congress. Ken Blackwell could win that seat, if he runs. If he doesn’t run, I hope that a conservative state senator will run.
If the number of RINOs on freerepublic are any indication, the current Repugnant party won't be any worse off.
